French term or phrase: les pensions servies sous forme de capital
I can't figure out the above phrase. Here's the section it appears in:

D'autre part, les cotisations patronales et salariales aux fonds de pension sont désormais fiscalement déductibles, les plus values dégagées sont exonérées et les pensions servies sous forme de capital sont partiellement exonérées.

This is from an EU study (§ 2.2.4 of the document)

pour son employeur. Les pensions servies sous forme de capital sont imposées au taux
uniforme de 16,5%, les pensions en rentes étant imposées au taux habituel 2 .




Contributions to occupational pension schemes are tax-deductible for both the employee and the
employer. Capital-sum pensions are taxed at a flat rate of 16,5% and annuities are taxed at the
standard rate

  -> merci bien!
disagree  David Umpleby: how do you equate 'capital' with stock option?
1 hr
  -> stock options are equities and therefore capital - even though I grant you that this type of capital can be risky
agree  Erica Laughlin: I would go with this one rather than lump sum, since logically a lump sum payment wouldn't be tax-deductible, but stock options might be.

  -> thank you. Smart lady! Never forget the tax angle, even when doing translations .....
disagree  Steven Geller: It is from an EU study - the English version reads "capital sum pensions".

lump sum pension payouts, pensions paid (out) in a lump sum, lump sum pension payments


Explanation:
In context, you have any number of ways to express this one. A couple of possibilities :

Lump sum pension payout
Pension paid in a lump sum
Lump sum pension payment

There are two options available to retirees who received their lump sum pension payouts from their company.

Mr Yurko's absence is explained because he received no "payoff", although he did take a lump sum pension payout of £3.8m.
