Limited Price Indexation : ウィキペディア英語版 | Limited Price Indexation
Limited Price Indexation or LPI is a pricing index used to calculate increases in components of scheme pension payments in the UK. The LPI is the Retail Prices Index (RPI) capped at 5%. Since the introduction of the LPI, RPI first exceeded 5% in July 2008 when it reached 5.05%. ==Usage== The Pensions Act 1995 required scheme pension payments arising from excess contributions to go up at the LPI. Excess contributions are defined as contributions that are not protected rights contributions from contracting out of State Earnings-Related Pension Scheme (SERPS) or the State second pension (S2P) or any Additional voluntary contributions (AVCs). Only contributions made after April 6, 1997 are required to increase at the LPI rate, so these contributions are known as ''post 1997 excess contributions''. The rules were later amended by the Pensions Act 2004 so that excess contributions made after April 6, 2005 only had to increase at the RPI rate capped at 2.5% instead of 5%. In either case, the scheme can pay increases greater than the statutory minimum. The rules for payment increases only apply to scheme pensions, i.e. pension payments made from a defined benefits (DB or final salary) scheme. Payments arising from contributions into a money purchase pension scheme (also known as a defined contribution pension scheme) are not required to increase. This is because scheme members have the right to use their fund value to purchase an annuity with their own chosen rate of increase, which could be zero if a level pension is chosen. This right is known as the open market option (OMO). Following A-day, members also have the right to enter into an unsecured pension arrangement.
