Without the right inheritance tax provisions the Government could benefit more from your life’s work than your family. That’s why it is important to work out what you may be liable for on death – and then talk to an independent expert on how best to balance things in your favour.
Estate planning is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
All too often, people put off estate planning. This is understandable as, rather than preparing for the here and now, it requires you to consider what will happen when your life is over, hardly something most of us rush to contemplate.
Consequently, estate planning often becomes, and all too often remains, a do-it-tomorrow task. When it could suddenly become all-important it might be too late. After all, accidents and illnesses can and do happen.
This guide will help you prepare effective plans that will help ensure you control what happens to your estate.
Most people’s finances are like a house of cards, with their ability to earn an income acting as the bottom row. Everything else rests upon this bottom layer and, should the worst happen and your income stop, the whole house can come tumbling down. Life and health insurance protection underpins most good financial planning. These types of insurance can ensure that, if the worst should happen, the right amount of money will reach the right hands at the right time.
