Don’t Wait, Transfer Your QROPS UK Pension Fund To India Now!

  Did you know that India became the world's fifth largest economy in 2019 in terms of nominal GDP, moving ahead of both France and the UK? While the pandemic and global economic slowdown has pushed it back to 6th place, the CEBR (Centre for Economics and Business Research) has forecasted India becoming the world’s third largest economy by 2030, moving past the UK by 2025, Germany by 2027, and Japan by 2030. If you’ve lived and worked in the UK and have accumulated a pension fund there, the time has never been better to transfer that pension fund to India through a QROPS.

QROPS and Indian Economy

  Did you know that India’s economy is the third-largest in the world in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP)? While India is well known for its information technology and business process outsourcing industries, a lot of people don’t realize that we rank second in farm output and 12th in factory output in the world. Additionally, we’re the only country with a population and economy that rivals China and we’re already seeing a global shift with FDI being diverted from China to India on a global scale. If there ever was a time for you to take your pension fund that’s gathering dust in a broken economy that’s only expected to get worse, now is that time. Not only is the transfer through QROPS free of any penalties and charges, but it also comes with investment opportunities that you wouldn’t be able to dream about in the UK.
