An adviser’s insight

Aim to maximise your cash savings

It might shock you to know that 28% of people hold their cash in interest-free savings accounts(1), receiving no return on their hard-earned money. Because under current rules a basic rate taxpayer can earn up to £1,000 in interest from their savings without paying tax, these people could be missing out on a significant financial boost that they could be enjoying.

This is even more relevant when you consider that the average person typically holds up to 25% of their available money on cash deposit(2). So, by reviewing your cash and tackling any ‘lazy money’, you’ll be making a great start at getting your finances in shape and achieving longer-term financial security.

If your money isn’t working as hard as it could, I can help. By making it easy to access potentially better interest rates, I can help you to aim to maximise your cash savings – giving you more money to spend on the things you enjoy or helping you grow your money towards a longer-term goal.

More about me

Throughout 2025, I dedicated myself to achieving the qualifications required to provide regulated financial advice. With that foundation in place, I took the time to thoroughly research the market to identify a wealth management company that could offer my clients the right blend of investment solutions, platform capability, and long term stability. I chose to partner with Quilter, a FTSE 250 company with award winning service, a strong reputation for innovation, a comprehensive range of solutions, and a track record of growth.

Estate planning and financial planning is a deeply personal process. Every client has unique needs, goals, and circumstances, and the right advice must always reflect their individuality. Working with Quilter will enable me to deliver individual advice driven, client focused solutions designed to support long term financial security for my clients and their families, now and for generations to come.
