Could you be more financially savvy this tax year?

Graphic of people planning their investments

March, and spring more generally, is often a time for fresh starts. And now your tax allowances are getting one too. The new tax year begins on 6 April, giving you time to plan how you’ll use all those new allowances to your advantage.

Take your ISA allowance. It can be tempting to leave it until the last minute to use it up. But, if you’re able to pay into it at the beginning of the year, you’re potentially getting a whole extra 12 months of time for your savings to grow.

A review right at the start of the tax year, or just before it, can also help us spot if there are any tax incentives you could use throughout the year.

You might be surprised just how many people don’t do this - and miss out on money that’s rightfully theirs. These tax incentives can be things like increasing your pension contributions or charitable giving to help offset your income tax.

I can also draw up a cashflow model to bring this to life. The model allows us to explore and compare different strategies and scenarios, so you can see the difference it will make to your long-term finances and goals.

If you want to find out more about the savvy financial strategies I could help you with this tax year, feel free to get in touch.

Kevin and Helen

After a considerable amount of research, including consulting the Vouchedfor guide to the top 150 financial advisors, we decided to contact David Crabbe. Our first contact was via phone and proved to be extremely informative. On the basis of this conversation we arranged to formally meet to discuss our financial position and future needs. David proved to be very professional, personable and thorough, he invested a significant amount of time to fully understand our financial position, future pension needs and appetite for risk. At the time of writing we have had several meetings with David and have developed a number of investment options. During a relatively short period of time we have already financially benefited from David's advice. In addition, his financial planning model has given us confidence to make difficult decisions re our retirement plans and future financial security. David sets the bar very high re service provision and we have no hesitation in recommending his services.
