Tax implications if you invest pension funds in CH and return to UK

Hi,

Planning to retire early in the UK.

Have looked into transferring our pillar through schwyz, paying 4.8 tax and withdrawing the proceeds once we are in the UK. Then locking it away in investments.

But just wondered if it may be wise to leave the money in an investment account here, would that affect the taxes we pay here in CH on withdrawing the pension amount.

Presumably any capital gains , income would be subject to uk tax?

So much to think about, just wondered if any financial gurus out there had any advice ,

Would appreciate any tips, insights.

Thanks

There is hardly any gain in a free passage second pillar - you will get better gains anywhere but there. It's tolerable when it is in a pension scheme as you have risk covered like search etc but in a free passage not as it is intended just to cover the gap between employment.

Depending how much you have in the plan, a move to Schwyay or not make sense as accounts there tend to have higher management costs.
