Even on the current system it will be taxed. What most people don't know is that thes a tax benefit on monthly payments to Retirement funds so you are currently paying less tax than what you should be potentially paying. I don't disagree entirely, it definitely feels like a "scam" but it's less than what it looks like

A strategy to get more tax from the already highly taxed South Africans. And they know that normal people are struggling and will opt to withdraw. Already people can’t afford retirement. Should be a last last resort

​@@nomvanoduma9221 Consider the tax implications carefully. I understood from another video that the tax at a nominal rate means that your yearly tax could increase as the withdrawal could push you into a higher tax bracket when added to your annual salary. It's worth investigating. This is govt's strategy to tax the up to R550 000 that would have been your tax free entitlement upon retirement! People are not going to be left with that much cash out on retirement at all if they withdraw so they would have forfeited on getting R550 000 tax free. Smart govt, woe is us!

Never ever withdraw money from your retirement fund no matter how desperate you are, let's rather learn to save for emergencies. Only 6% retire comfortably in SA and with this system i forsee this number going even lower😢

This system is just a scam, basically it's more money for the tax man than me as an individual. They could have just went to the credit union and list all your credits one has and use that money to pay off some of the credit's that are pulling you down financially so that one can be In a stable like financial position.

Is it also only available on retirement? How about upon retrenchment or dismissal? Or at the end of a fixed term contract? It would make sense to only lock the pot made up of the 2/3 contributions but not the vested pot. There’s really no benefit to this for the consumer. The government will be the biggest winner.

@@penuellmatlala321 I don’t think that is accurate. If your current fund has R300K, only 10% or up to R30K of it will be used to fund the savings component. That’s the amount you can withdraw and you must have a min of R2000. That’s my understanding

​@@FinancialBunny Hi , I think the 'Vested ' portion needs more exploration here. Is it correct to say that the vested pot, is the ENTIRE funds existing on September 01, which then 'seeds' the Savings pot ? Hence , 10% up to a max of R30 000 of the 'vested' pot goes into savings. My understanding is that apart from this, nothing in the vested pot is subject to one thirds. Please explain what happens to the vested pot on resignation? Is it fully accessible subject to tax? What happens upon retirement? The same?

According to information from my side, you can only withdraw all your previous contributions in case you resign or get retreached after 1st of September but any other contributions from the 1st going, you can not touch it. Information from Alexander Fobes.

Hi Nicolette,my question is not related to this topic but need your advise if I have a fixed deposit of about 3 years it is almost a year old and I feel over indebted can't I borrow from my invest and return the money borrowed before maturity or rather cancel the fixed deposit ?
@frederickhefer3442
@frederickhefer3442 3 ай бұрын
Not Nicollette but speak to your financial adviser or the institution where you have a fixed deposit. On most fixed deposits there are penalties if you withdraw earlier. They normally will not allow you to borrow an amount from the deposit. And in most cases even if they do it might be more than the penalty.

So the funds that are sitting in the saving component, does it accumulate interest? Or its just removed from your total contribution and it's just sitting there? 😞 Is the two pot automatic or you have to opt for it?
@FinancialBunny
@FinancialBunny 4 ай бұрын
No it’s still part of your retirement fund. It’s just accessible once a year when you need cash. Please ask your fund administrator about opting in. Remember it will be the new law from 1 September for retirement funds so there isn’t opting in

Can you leverage a loan against your RA for a loan for an income bearing project like buying lanf and building a residence for rental. Its seems unfair that a finance corporation can use our funds to buy property but as an individual you cant and be taxed again if you withdraw full amount
@frederickhefer3442
@frederickhefer3442 3 ай бұрын
Yes you can get a loan or surety for a loan if you use the funds to buy, build or renovate your home. This is heavily regulated by your fund's rules and the board of trustees have to decide if they will allow you to do so. There might also be tax implications. Many funds do not allow this.

From a layman's perspective I wouldn't think you will be affected in anyway. Remember the RA money is still your money which suppose to grow in interest whether you are contributing more to it or not. The change that the current pension law amendments seek to do is to enable you to withdraw some of your saved money, which you could not ordinarily do before. I hope that I am right.

The reform takes place 1st September 2024. If you are no longer contributing to a fund then it won’t apply to you. But essentially if you wanted to withdraw then monies from your existing RA can be used to seed the savings component. Only 10% or up to R30K
