Planning to leave a family legacy?

Impact of coronavirus (COVID-19) on Will making

We are living in extraordinary times right now, in the grip of a global coronavirus (COVID19) pandemic. Many people are concerned to ensure that their affairs are in order and that they have made a Will, which is one of the most important legal documents you can create in life.

Life insurance protection

COVID-19 pandemic outbreak causing many of us to think about our own mortality

The terrifying daily death tolls resulting from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak may be causing many of us to think about our own mortality, particularly if we’re responsible for a family or business loans. Increasingly we’re having to think about things we haven’t thought about before – including the unthinkable.

Protect the things that really matter

Choosing the right type of cover in case the unexpected happens

Coronavirus (COVID-19) has exposed – or more accurately, underlined – the importance of life insurance. It’s understandable that we would rather not think of the time when we’re no longer around. But it’s important to protect the things that really matter – like our loved ones, home and lifestyle – in case the unexpected happens.

Making a Will

Have you decided what happens to your money, property and possessions after your death?

Since the outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19), the number of people seeking to write new Wills has risen by over 30%, according to The Law Society. Understandably, the current situation is causing angst among people, particularly elderly and vulnerable clients who are currently self-isolating.

Hurting from home

Is the ‘new normal’ having an adverse effect on your health?

More than half of office workers believe their employer should do more to help them work from home during the coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis. This has lead to millions of Britons suffering in pain as a result of their makeshift home offices.

Presenteeism during lockdown

Levels reach record highs in organisations as stress at work rises

Unlike absenteeism, presenteeism isn’t always apparent. You know when someone doesn’t show up for work, but you often can’t tell when or how much illness or a medical condition hinders someone’s performance.

Time in the market, not timing the market

Don’t get distracted from staying focused on your investment goals

Investment market swings can be unnerving, but they shouldn’t distract you from staying focused on your financial goals.

Periods of market volatility, like whose we’ve seen over recent months, will undoubtedly be unsettling times for most investors. The risks of incurring losses can make holding investments difficult to bear, with the temptation being to sell out and cut your losses. But volatility is part and parcel of investing.

Planning a move abroad?

Undertaking what is required takes a great deal of thoughtful consideration

You’ve always dreamed about living aboard, but how do you make that a reality? The first practical step is to think about where you are in your life and weigh which options are available to you. Factors like your age, financial situation and skill set will come into play as you consider where to explore long term. More open borders and the need to find work in the wake of the financial crash mean more people live outside the country they were born in than ever before.

Freeing up extra money

Home is where the heart and tax-free wealth is!

Preferring to remain in their own homes for as long as possible for many people is increasingly becoming an important part of how we view older age. There may be several reasons for this, to keep the family home, stay close to friends or remain in comfortable and familiar surroundings.

Family finances

Traditional spending and saving habits have been turned upside down

Household finances including spending and saving patterns have deteriorated drastically since the coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdown, despite unprecedented Government support. Traditional habits have been turned upside down, and household budgets that guided our incomings and outgoings before the pandemic are no longer valid.
