An Introduction to personal financial and tax planning

Intro to the tax system
Tax law is more complicated than ever. As a consequence tax planning is more important than ever before. We are available to guide you through all aspects of the tax system.
Planning aspects
Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now.
Home aspects
The importance of careful planning extends to your home life as well as your business
Recession news centre
We have a range of up to date articles and commentaries on the effect of the recession on small businesses, banks, lending and saving, the economy and pensions and investments.
Aspects of investments and investing
How much do you need to save? What saving is tax-efficient? When will you be a millionaire?
Pensions
What has happened to your retirement planning? When will you retire? How much will you need to live comfortably?
VCT and EIS
Subscribers to VCT investments are eligible for tax relief of up to 30%. Professional advice must be sought before making investments that qualify for these reliefs.
