Nicholas Allen

Financial Planner, ACSI in Kent

A little bit about Nicholas

I am a financial planner who specialises in providing tailored protection, retirement planning, savings and investments for all of my clients. Previously, I have spent a lot of time abroad, coaching the next generation of cricket stars and also running a successful restaurant abroad. I live in Folkestone but also have strong links with France and thus take a great interest in those wishing to become expats in the future.

Tackle tax year end with confidence

Tax rules can seem pretty impenetrable. With the new Budget, and so many different allowances and regulations to keep up with, it’s no wonder millions of us end up accidentally missing opportunities.

In this case, ignorance really isn’t bliss. And by confidently preparing for tax year end, you can be sure you’re getting all the money you’re entitled to - whether that’s by saving as much as you can tax-efficiently or just using your allowances to their full extent.

I can go through your financial position with you, so you’re ready for tax year end on 5 April. Together we can make this tax year end something to celebrate, rather than pass by. Get in touch for your tax year end review or a cashflow modelling session to understand your financial position better.

Nicholas's location

Kent
CT20
United Kingdom

Nick is located in Folkestone and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.

I am a qualified financial planner and member of the Chartered Institute for Securities and Investment. I also hold a Law degree.

Outside of work, I remain active by playing cricket weekly for my local club and whenever time permits, visiting my father in France and helping him with the running and continued growth of our campsite – call it my own retirement planning! I have an outdoor passion to be more sustainable. Thus, in the next year, in addition to already having chickens and a vegetable garden, I will be expanding my efforts by cultivating mushrooms and having bees. I also love to read (constantly updating my Goodreads), and regularly going to the theatre - in spite of possessing zero artistic talent myself.
