Estate & Inheritance Tax Planning

Once viewed as a tax on the truly affluent, inheritance tax is no longer something confined to the very rich. Even those with a relatively moderate amount of wealth should think about estate and inheritance tax planning. Yet very few of us do.

Estate and inheritance tax planning is about getting the balance right between having access to your money when you need it, saving tax and leaving a protected legacy for future generations.

It can be a sensitive subject to talk about especially when many of us think we are too young to even be considering this just yet. The truth is that it is never too early to start protecting your net worth, cash flow and assets for yourself and your loved ones. The earlier you start, the more flexible the tax-saving strategies will be.

Inheritance tax is an inherent part of estate planning and we work very closely with your solicitor and accountant to build a financial plan that is flexible, coherent and integrated. Clients are often surprised that the bespoke financial plans give them more control and financial flexibility than they had previously thought – a plan that is flexible enough to adapt to individual and economic changes, bringing peace of mind, clarity and confidence to the situation.
