Legal & General pension review

Find out everything you need to know about the Legal & General SIPP, including fees and fund costs

The Legal & General pension is a self-invested personal pension (SIPP). We detail below what this means. You can also have a Legal & General workplace pension.

Legal & General is an all rounder with the financial products it has, offering investments, pensions, insurance, life cover and mortgages. We’re specifically looking at its pensions product here, if you’re looking for a review of its insurance product, we’ve covered that too. It’s been around with its colourful umbrella since 1836 (although the umbrella logo used today has only been used since 1984).

Legal & General self invested personal pension (SIPP)

Self-invested personal pensions (SIPPs) are a tax-efficient way to save for your retirement. You can pay into a SIPP until you turn 75 and start withdrawing from the age of 55.

With the Legal & General SIPP you can:

  • Start with £100
  • Choose from ready made funds based on your risk appetite
  • Receive 20% tax relief on your contributions (if you are a basic rate taxpayer)
  • Access your account online
  • Consolidate all of your existing pensions into one pot

Legal and General charges a 0.25% platform fee. This is calculated from your investment amount and is in addition to the fees for your chosen funds.

How much money does this work out to be? You just need to multiply your investment amount by 0.25% (or 0.0025).

Pensions are long-term investments. You may get back less than you originally paid in because your capital is not guaranteed and charges may apply. Keep in mind that the tax treatment of your pension and investments will depend on your individual circumstances and may change in the future. Capital at risk.
We show offers we can track - that's not every product on the market...yet. Unless we've said otherwise, products are in no particular order. The terms "best", "top", "cheap" (and variations of these) aren't ratings, though we always explain what's great about a product when we highlight it. This is subject to our terms of use. When you make major financial decisions, consider getting independent financial advice. Always consider your own circumstances when you compare products so you get what's right for you. Most of the data in Finder's comparison tables has the source: Moneyfacts Group PLC. In other cases, Finder has sourced data directly from providers.
