"Our family have held a SSAS with Garrabost Trustees for well over 10 years. Over that time it has proven to be a great tool in providing security for our future retirement whilst mitigating our company's tax liability. I find the control and flexibility you enjoy over any investment strategy to be the most pleasing aspect of the scheme.
We have invested in our business premises & investment bonds and have taken advantage of the company loan back facility"

WHAT IS A SSAS?
A Small Self Administered Pension Scheme (SSAS) is a pension scheme that is established under Trust by an employer, usually a limited company. A SSAS provides a means of pension saving that runs alongside a business and allows for investment decisions to be made by the business owners who are also the scheme Trustees and Members. Scheme members are not limited to the business owners, with senior employees or family members also able to join.
Our role within a SSAS is that of the Professional Trustee and Administrator. We provide support by assisting with the management and administration of the scheme. This includes annual filing with HMRC and The Pensions Regulator (where appropriate) and allowing for seamless transactions, all the while ensuring that the activity of the SSAS operates within HMRC parameters.
Garrabost Trustees have been acting as Professional Trustee and Administrators, advising Small Self Administered Pension Schemes for over 30 years. We believe that understanding the clients’ needs and challenges is our highest priority, and we ensure that your pension works in harmony with your business. We tailor our services appropriately and help you create new opportunities.
