Tax Advantage

Tax Advantage investments and accounts are used by a wide variety of investors and employees in various financial situations. It refers to the economic bonus which applies to certain accounts or investments that are, by statute, tax-reduced, tax-deferred, or tax-free. In countries in which the average age of the population is increasing, tax advantages may put pressure on pension schemes. In return for a pension scheme’s tax advantaged status, governments typically enact restrictions to discourage access to a pension fund’s assets before retirement.
