Junior SIPP

Be invested in making a difference to a child’s longer-term future. From small acorns, mighty oak trees grow.

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 Junior SIPP depends on personal circumstances and all tax rules may change in the future. Withdrawals from a Junior SIPP will not normally be possible until the child reaches age 55 (57 from 2028).

Giving your child a head start

A Junior Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP) is a tax-efficient way to build a retirement nest egg for a child. The Junior SIPP allowance for the 2024/25 tax year is £3,600. And you have until 5 April 2025 to use it.
