How much do I need to save for retirement?

The amount varies from person to person. Instead, it’s important to begin by considering the lifestyle to which you aspire in your retirement, and how much that is likely to cost – taking into account inflation. Then, consider your anticipated income during retirement, and your existing assets, to determine how much you need to save to meet your objectives.

How could I make my income, savings and investments as tax efficient as possible?

Broadly, optimising your income, savings and investments for tax efficiency is enabled through annual reliefs and allowances that are available to you; tax-advantaged accounts and investment wrappers; and expert advice to help plan and utilise those measures.

How can I protect my assets?

Protection is a crucial element of financial planning. Depending on your individual circumstances, you may wish to consider taking out or utilising life, health, disability, long-term care or property insurance/assurance, and legal strategies such as trusts and liability protection. An expert can help you to determine which products are suitable based on your assets, income, existing health condition and age, aligned to your objectives.

Why do I need private banking and what are its advantages?

Private banking can unlock specialist lending solutions, for example those backed by investments, or mortgages for those with complex incomes. It can prove useful to HNW individuals and business owners, offering lines of credit and cash flow solutions, foreign currency exchange, competitive interest rates for borrowing and saving, as well as providing a personalised relationship with your own private banker.

Please note that these services necessitate a referral and are separate and distinct from those offered by Apollo Private Wealth or St. James’s Place.

What are trusts and how can I utilise them in my estate planning?

A trust ensures that the correct amount of money reaches the intended parties exactly when it’s needed. Trusts offer a level of flexibility, innovation, and control that may not be possible through a Will alone. For instance, if you intend to gift assets to someone you deem not yet responsible enough, you might want to maintain some level of control over those assets.

Trusts are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

How does financial planning and wealth management differ for private equity professionals?

Private equity and venture capital professionals tend to have complex financial circumstances.

Services include tax planning and wealth structuring advice; specialist lending for those with complex incomes and earning structures; advice for UK resident non-domiciled individuals and offshore portfolio management.

Financial advice can also help you plan for your route to becoming partner, and fund your general partner (GP) commitments.

What technology do you use to create financial plans?

Financial planners use advanced technology, such as cash flow and net worth modelling, to help you visualise your existing and forecast positions. With your goals and aspirations overlaid, these computations can help you to anticipate where changes to your financial plan might be necessary, to help you achieve your objectives.
