Webinar Recording: What you need to know about inheritance

What is the value of financial advice? Is it picking the best investments? Paying less tax? Sorting out your pension?

We like to think it is about achieving your aspirations, whether that’s sending your children to university, relocating or retiring in 20 years. And that means making smart decisions across all aspects of your assets and money.

One key area to consider is inheritance tax planning (IHT). Discussing inheritance is often difficult and a bit of an ‘off-limits’ topic. But with IHT payments to HMRC rising to £5.4bn in 2021* and future generations expected to inherit more than £293bn** we certainly think it needs discussing.

Our latest webinar covered both these topics. Joe O’Brien and Carol Lindsay will provide easy to understand planning and IHT advice. They will be joined by markets expert, Andrew Alexander. The war in Ukraine, increasing inflation and the cost-of-living crisis are daily headlines and Andrew will not be struggling to find content for his latest market update.

Global Market Commentary – July

2024 has been a very good year for investors so far, with stock markets in the UK, US and Europe all reaching record highs. Signs of weakness have emerged in recent weeks, as companies report their latest earnings: valuations in the US are high and some profit taking has occurred. The UK stock market appears cheaper, with an improving economy to boot. Many investors believe inflation is finally under control.

Global Market Commentary – June

2024 always promised to be a busy year for elections, with one half of the world’s population heading to the polls. As far as financial markets are concerned, political surprises have now bubbled up in several countries within a short period of time. With much still to be decided by voters, there is greater uncertainty in the short-term investment outlook. However, inflation remains on a declining path in the UK, US and Europe, while economic growth appears strong.
