Open a Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP)
Important information: The value of investments can go down as well as up so you may not get back what you invest. Eligibility to invest in a SIPP and tax treatment depends on personal circumstances and all tax rules may change in the future. The minimum age you can normally access your pension savings is currently 55, and is due to rise to 57 on 6 April 2028, unless you have a lower protected pension age. It’s important to understand that pension transfers are a complex area and may not be suitable for everyone.
Opening a SIPP is straightforward
You'll need the following:
- Your National Insurance number
- Debit card details (if you'd like to make a single payment)
- Bank or building society details (if you'd like to set up a regular savings plan from as little as £20 a month)
Once you’ve opened your SIPP, you can then choose what investments you’d like to hold in your new account.
