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.

Melanie's location

Melanie is located in Newbury and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.

A busy career in recruitment followed by motherhood and running a start-up. These are some of the reasons I let financial planning take a back seat. That is, until life threw some unexpected curveballs my way and it could no longer be ignored! Throughout life, our aims and priorities are constantly shifting. A financial plan should accommodate these changes and allow for the unexpected. Working with a financial planner should leave you feeling empowered and give you peace of mind. Whether it’s growing your wealth, planning for retirement, making the most of personal tax allowances, or just reviewing where you are “at”. I’d love to help!.

Newbury-based for 30 years, my hobbies include golf (I am huge sports fan generally, but mostly of the armchair variety), gardening/houseplants, and my two French bulldogs who are an endless source of companionship and amusement in equal measure!
