With careful planning and advice, we’ll guide you through what can appear a complex world of saving arrangements, including regular savings into Insurance, Individual Savings Accounts (ISA’s), and Unit Trust Schemes.

Trusts, Offshore Trusts & Inheritance Trusts
For the more sophisticated investor with substantial wealth, the use of trusts often plays an essential, if not vital role in planning investment strategies. In particular, offshore trusts can defer taxation for a considerable period of time, potentially leading to greater capital gains within the trust.
Protection of investments beyond your or your partner’s lifetime is important to preserve your estate. By careful appointment of trustees and by clearly defining their powers to act on your behalf, you can make substantial tax savings. You also ensure that your beneficiaries are certain to receive the benefits of trust income and capital in a manner most appropriate to their needs.
Used in conjunction with a carefully constructed will, letters of wishes or in some cases the use of a power of attorney, a trust can provide the flexibility and security needed to protect your wealth during and beyond your lifetime.
The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than the amount invested.
