Financial Planning Consultant DipPFS in the Solihull
Having completed the Chartered Insurance Institute’s Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning, I am a dedicated financial adviser. With a focus on investment, retirement planning, inheritance tax, and protection for personal and business clients, I bring enthusiasm to financial planning. My approach is built on understanding each client’s unique goals, delivering clear, actionable advice to secure their financial future with confidence. I take pride in simplifying complex financial concepts, ensuring clients feel empowered and informed every step of the way. Outside work, I am a passionate sportsman and avid football fan, I love maintaining a strong commitment to health and fitness through regular gym sessions. I enjoy an active lifestyle, embracing various sports and outdoor activities, alongside a love of music and film.
In the UK, there are around 3.3 million pension pots that are considered as ‘lost’, containing an average of around £9,500 per pot*. Nobody wants to be missing out on money they have built up in a pension, but there’s good news - this kind of financial hit is completely avoidable.
This one might seem obvious, but it’s easy to lose track of your pension pots, where they are, and what they’re doing. If you make a note of your pension providers, and check your pot(s) regularly, you’re far less likely to lose one of them over time.
Your investment allocation is where and how you’re investing your pension. Often, people will just use their pension provider’s default setting. But this might not actually be right for your retirement goals and risk profile. So, it’s a good idea to revisit this every few years.
If you’ve had a windfall recently, like a pay rise, bonus, or inheritance, putting a portion of it into your pension is a good idea. Not only is it tax-efficient, but you’ll be glad when your retirement comes around.
As an adviser, my role is to help you get all of this done simply, with all the facts and information you need. That might be helping you review your risk profile, consolidating old pension pots, or making a plan to help you retire early. Investing can help your money grow over time, but the value of investments can go down as well as up.
If that sounds good to you, please get in touch.
