Open a Self-Invested Personal Pension with an Employer Contribution

What you need to remember

  • The HL SIPP is designed for people comfortable choosing their own investments. The value of all investments can rise and fall, so although there’s the potential for growth, you could also get back less than you invest. If you’re not sure which investments are right for you, please ask us about financial advice. There’s no personal advice on our website.

  • You must be 18 or older to open an HL SIPP and usually need to be at least 55 before you can access the money (rising to 57 from 2028). Pension and tax rules can change, and benefits will depend on your circumstances.

  • To apply online you must be UK resident, if you’re not resident in the UK please contact us for more information on eligibility and alternative ways to apply.
