An adviser’s insight

Gifts that give back

Graphic of people exchanging gifts

December is often seen as the gifting season. But alongside the usual socks and chocolate gold coins, it might be worth planning a slightly bigger, longer-term present for your loved ones this year.

Inheritance tax (IHT) is notoriously complicated and can hit people with a big bill if it isn’t managed properly. It isn’t reserved for the very wealthy either. Dealing with IHT is a reality that many more families face after a loved one has passed - in what is usually an extremely vulnerable moment.

This is where using your gifting allowances can make a real impact on those around you. It’s a great way to share your wealth with the people you love while limiting their exposure to IHT. It does take a little bit of extra planning though.

Sitting down with an adviser like me can help you figure out where you want your money to go, and when. For instance, it might be more helpful to gift a family member a contribution towards their first home now, rather than leaving them a legacy.

Whatever you decide is best, we’ll find the most tax efficient way to do it.

More about me

I am a Financial Advisor based in Crawley, West Sussex, drawing on eight years of experience within financial services. My focus is on guiding individuals, families, and businesses through key areas of financial planning, including retirement planning, investments, estate planning, and protection.

I believe in being open, honest, and approachable, offering clear advice so clients can feel fully informed and confident in their decisions. My approach is centred on genuine understanding and personal connection. I aim to create long lasting relationships built on trust, ensuring each client’s goals and aspirations are carefully considered.

My objective is to help people feel reassured in the present, prepared for the future, and confident that their financial interests are being supported. It’s about providing clear, steady guidance that leads to long-term security and well-being.

Away from the professional side, I appreciate a balanced life. I’m a keen follower of Formula 1 and Fulham FC, and I enjoy gaming or playing golf to unwind. You might also find me walking my dog around Crawley or spending time with family and friends. My golf game may not be ready for The Open, but the challenge of improving shot by shot is a nice reminder that progress often comes one small step at a time.
