Similar to a PRSA (Personal Retirement Savings Account), a Personal Retirement Bond is owned by the individual. This means that the plan is portable, and individuals take control of their pension when moved into a Personal Retirement Bond.
Personal Retirement Bonds offer a range of investment options, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other investment vehicles. The choice of investments can be tailored to the individual's risk tolerance, investment goals, and time horizon until retirement.
Personal Retirement Bonds benefit from tax-free growth.
When the individual reaches retirement age, the accumulated funds in the Personal Retirement Bond can be used to provide retirement income. This may involve taking a lump sum, purchasing an annuity, or opting for other retirement income options.
