The new two-pot system means South Africans will be able to cash out one-third of their future retirement savings throughout their career, while two-thirds will only become accessible on retirement. The one-third component is called the"savings pot", while the other two-thirds is the"retirement pot".
On Wednesday, Treasury confirmed that withdrawals from the savings pot upon retirement will also still be subject to lump sum rates – and won't be taxed at the much higher normal income rates that will apply to early withdrawals. But if you wait until retirement before taking a lump sum - on an amount of R2 million, you will pay an effective tax rate of only 22.4% - regardless of any other taxable income earned in the same year.
The savings in your retirement pot that are not paid out as a lump sum on retirement, will be received as a monthly annuity and taxed as individual income.
