Pensions for GPs at Every Career Stage

As a GP, your financial future depends on more than your practice list. Pension planning needs to evolve as your career progresses.
Early Career (20s–30s)
- Build strong habits with even modest contributions.
- GMS contributions can be topped up via a PRSA AVC, giving you wider investment choice.
- Example: €200 per month started at 30 could grow to more than €300,000 by 65.
Mid-Career (40s–50s)
- These are peak earning years—use the higher contribution allowances (up to 25–30% of earnings).
- Tax relief is generous, especially for higher-rate taxpayers.
Late Career (55+)
- Take advantage of higher contribution limits (up to 40% of earnings at 60+) .
- Consolidate multiple pensions into a clear, manageable plan.
- Focus on creating predictable income streams for retirement.
Why It Matters for GPs
- Steady retirement fund growth.
- GMS pension scheme is complex, with deductions and contributions often confusing.
- Long-term financial security for you and your family.
