GAD rates.
The Government Actuary’s Department (GAD) tables are a key part of calculating annual income in Capped Drawdown.
Accurate calculations.
When in Capped Drawdown, the uppermost level of annual income permissible is determined by reference to the value of the member's fund, their age at initial calculation and the Government Actuary's Department (GAD) tables.
The factors on the table determine the level of "basic pension" that can be drawn for each £1000 of member fund.
The factors are reviewed monthly in line with changes in UK medium/long dated gilt yields. The factors are set out below. The 2011 tables are used.
