When you ContributeAssets to an RA it is immediately out of
your estate = No 20% Estate Duty when you pass away.
Protected from Creditors
InternalTax Rate of 0%
What is going to change:
You can contribute up to 27.5% of Remuneration or
Taxable income Capped at R 350 000 pa
Your Contributions are only excluded from your estate if
already deducted fromTaxable income. IE Disallowed
Contributions form part of your taxable estate.

1. โRetirement annuities donโt grow so well I can do better
on the stock exchange!โ
2. โI have been paying this RA for 15 years and it only has
R109 682.22 and Iโm paying R 1 500 pm in it there is
no way I can retire on this.This is a terrible investmentโ

4. What you should ask?What you should ask?What you should ask?What you should ask?
1. โRetirement annuities donโt grow so well I can do better on
the stock exchange!โ
So why not invest on the stock exchange through an RA? Itโs
and investmentVehicle /TaxWrapper / Pot. It creates the rules
NOT the RETURN!
How often did you review your underlying investments? โ
Funds, Shares, Cash etc? โ How much do you spend on
maintaining and servicing your car?
Why not pay a professional to do the same for your retirement?
What is your car worth?
What is your retirement worth?

How many times in the last 15 years have you checked that
your savings were in line with your retirement goal?
Have you done the calculation to see what your growth is
relative to what you put in and what your fund value is?
Do you realise your premium has a 15% escalation and you
actually started with only R184.34pm? =Your return is
actually 10%
What have you done with yourTAX SAVING????

7. The Real Value of an RA
If you earn R 300 000pa (R25 000pm) and contribute the
current Maximum of 15% pa with a Conservative Growth of
10% (CPI+3%).You get R39,345,229.83 after 40 yrs
(age 25 to age 65).Your salary increases with 6% pa
www.machrie.co.za
8. The Real Value of an RA
If everything else stays the same BUT you contribute the new Maximum of
27.5%.You get R72,132,921.36 after 40 yrs. Letโs compare it to rather investing
in a discretionary portfolio, like Shares or direct UnitTrusts (Allan Gray and
Coronation). Remember internalTax rate of RA is 0% so letโs deduct 15% tax on the
Discretionary investment. (8.5%) = R52,296,082.22 Difference R 19 836 839
www.machrie.co.za
9. The Real Value of an RA
But wait thereโs more!When you contribute to an RA you get
some cash back.
The value of your RA is the RA plus the investedTax Refund (In a
Discretionary Investment). Suddenly your RA goes from
R72,132,921.36 to R88,344,706.85 (Extra: R16,211,785.49 or +
22.5%)
www.machrie.co.za
10. The Real Value of an RA
Oh but wait yet once again!We are not done yet!What else can
you do? Iโll tell you.You can avoid having to pay taxes on your
Discretionary Investment by investing first in aTFSA up to the
annual maximum of R 30 000 pa. (your 8.5% goes back up to
10% -YAY!)
This means you get: R4,276,972.20 extra
www.machrie.co.za
11. The Real Value of an RA
Letโs recap: Instead of investing in a discretionary portfolio we went form
R52,296,082.22 to R72,132,921.36: + R 19 836 839
You then invested your tax saving in a discretionary portfolio:
+ R16,211,785.49
Then you cleverly invested the maximum allowable amount into aTFSA first:
+ R4,276,972.20

THE VALUE OF ADVICE!!!
Proportional Income Provision
The Real Value of an RAWhat am I trying to sell?
The value of Advice:
By investing in a differentWAY not more or in a different fund / share
your final portfolio balance improved from R52,296,082.22 to
R92,621,679.05.
www.machrie.co.za
13. Return
Yes income is taxed differently at drawdown between RAโs
and discretionary investments. It still works but not on the
very small / short investments. Must be reviewed on a case
by case basis.
10% is quite conservative in the long run (CPI+3%)
You should probably do your calculations with a higher
expected return say CPI+6%? If you have enough time?
Unrealistic lets seeโฆโฆโฆ
My Favourite, Offshore:What will the Rand do?
www.machrie.co.za
14. Return
Letโs see what it has done:
Would you agree itโs safe to assume a LONG-term average
depreciation of 9.31% for the Rand?
Safe to assume a 5% return offshore?
Rand equivalent return 14.31% pa? (long-term)
Do the same RA calculation but with new return =
R188,760,762.62 instead of R92,621,679.05 โ 103%
