Save More With
Savings Booster®

Savings Booster comes with a pre-tax option which allows


you to save more than any other product type. This is
because it allows you to add a part of what you would
have paid as income tax to your savings.

The 2008 Pensions Act allows all Ghanaian employees to


save up to 16.5% of their monthly income without paying
income tax.

Pre-Tax in Detail
Let’s assume your gross monthly salary is GH¢ 2000 and
you put GH¢ 160 of your take-home into regular savings
every month. You will have GH¢ 1,352 of spending money
each month.

a Gross Salary GH¢ 2000


b SSF GH¢ 110
c Taxable GH¢ 1890
d Income Tax GH¢ 378
e Take Home GH¢ 1,512
f Savings Contribution GH¢ 160
g Spending Money GH¢ 1,352

With GH¢ 160 every month in regular savings, you will have
about GH¢ 83,508 with a total gain of about GH¢ 64,308
in profit over 10 years.

Opting for the Pre-Tax option allows you to maintain your


GH¢ 1,352 spending money and yet increase your monthly
savings to GH¢ 200.

a Gross Salary GH¢ 2000


b SSF GH¢ 110
c Savings Contribution GH¢ 200
d Taxable GH¢ 1690
e Income Tax GH¢ 338
f Spending Money GH¢ 1,352

The extra GH¢ 40 comes from the income tax you did not
have to pay.

With GH¢ 200 every month in regular savings, you will


have about GH¢ 104,386. Which is about GH¢ 20,878
more than what you would have gained with regular
savings.

This example assumes an investment return of 25% and an average income tax rate of 20%.
The amount of taxes will differ depending on your actual tax rate.
Cash withdrawals on Pre-Tax accounts before 10 years will be subject to a 15% tax withholding.
