April 6th 2017 sees the start of the new tax year and is an excellent time to review your existing financial arrangements. World events seem to be happening at a quickening pace so it is imperative that you ensure your investment portfolio is correctly structured and you are organised to take advantage of changes in legislation.

For example, are you aware of the rise in the tax-free limit for ISAs? From this month, savers will be able to save tax-free to the tune of £20,000 pa. This can be held in a combination of both cash and stocks and shares. Also the 6th April sees the introduction of a new Lifetime ISA for Individual aged 18 to 40. For every £4 you invest the Government adds £1. We can discuss the finer details and also where you can invest the funds.

Now is also the time to question your current financial advisor. Do you know what they are charging you in fees? Recent press reports have highlighted several cases of people moving their portfolios and pensions from a certain provider because they have been subjected to high fees, poor service and a lack of transparency.
