The two-pot retirement system will be compulsory for all retirement funds to split contributions received between two notional portions – one-third will be allocated to a “savings portion” that will allow early access to funds, while the remaining two-thirds will be allocated to a “retirement portion”. At retirement, whatever is left in the savings portion will be available as a cash lump sum. The retirement portion will have to be used to purchase an annuity.
