Wealth Management
Wealth, just like your health, must be carefully preserved. Your assets need to be protected against the potential threats of erosion by taxation, the effects of inflation and investment risks. Whatever your level of wealth, there is nothing wrong in making the decision to prepare a risk aversion strategy.
Mortgages
Your mortgage is probably the largest financial transaction and commitment you are likely to undertake. Surely then you should seek mortgage advice which is individually tailored to your needs and requirements? We are not tied to any particular lender, which means that we have the ability to act on your behalf in order to establish the most appropriate mortgage solution for you. Since 2007 the Credit Crunch has had an effect on the number of
Pensions
When you retire you still need food and shelter as an absolute minimum, but of course you will want to maintain the lifestyle to which you have become accustomed, so unless you can guarantee a large inheritance or windfall, then you need to provide yourself with a secure income for the rest of your life. A well prepared pension plan which is regularly reviewed should go some way to providing you with a reasonable level of income in your retirement.
Health Insurance
Health Insurance is probably one of the most important types of insurance you can own. Without it, an illness or accident can have serious long-term financial implications for you and your family. Most people will be aware that Health Insurance can cover the cost of private medical treatment for any acute conditions you may suffer in the future - from something as simple as a broken bone to more serious conditions like a heart attack or cancer.
Equity Release
Equity release is typically available to people who are over the age of 55 and have their own home with a significant amount of equity, but don’t have enough money or income for their needs. By releasing equity in the form of a lifetime mortgage or home reversion plan, it enables the individual(s) to remain in their home and raise money for things such as:
Savings & Investments
Often, people save for a specific reason and it's usually the safest way to build up a pot of money. It’s less risky than investing, but it offers limited growth. The most you'll earn on the money you save is the interest added. Saving is perfect for people who don’t want to take any risks with their money, and most savings accounts have easy access or are for a fixed term.
Life Assurance
The main purpose of Life Assurance is to provide money for those people who may depend on you financially, in the event that something should happen to you. These people could include family members or business partners. It can provide the reassurance of financial protection for you, your family and your business associates.
Taxation
Most of us face being taxed on our income, our capital gains, and in some circumstances the value of our estate when we die. Taxation can be very complicated and the rules, reliefs and allowances often change, so it is worth obtaining a clear grasp of how these taxes work by discussing with a professional adviser the most efficient way to arrange your finances.
