At retirement

As you approach ‘the longest holiday of your life’ you want to make sure your hard work will provide you with the retirement you want to have.

For clients starting their retirement, they want to enjoy life beyond work. For many, this is the stage where they have the health and the time to enjoy their wealth. At the same time, they need to feel confident that the funds will not run out.

Our advisers will help you to:

  • Identify your life goals, whether they are to tick off items on your bucket list or to simply potter at home with your family.
  • Review your existing pensions, ISAs, investment bonds, collectives and direct holdings and advise you on whether to consolidate them into one account. This can help you to take full advantage of available tax allowances, whilst ensuring that underlying investments remain competitive and in line with your objectives.
  • Understand your attitude to financial risk and how comfortable you are with investing your money in different types of funds.
  • Identify what insurance you and your family need to protect you, should the worst happen.
  • If appropriate, refer you to our mortgage advisers who can help you borrow whilst in retirement with products such as equity release.
  • Put together a financial plan which focuses on helping you to achieve your goals with suitable investments, pensions and protection.
  • Implement your financial plan and review it with you on a regular basis to ensure that it continues to meet your needs. This is key to our wealth management service which provides ongoing advice and support as your goals and needs change.

Our testimonials

Marion Ohlson

I first met Anthony Kynaston some 13 years ago, when I sought advice regarding an inheritance from my late parents. He immediately impressed me with his friendly, calm, clear and professional manner, ascertaining my individual needs. Tony has since then continued to advise, plan and manage my financial affairs. This includes advice on my Buy to Let property and pension needs. He and his colleagues are always available to assist with any queries I may have. As a result, I can relax and now enjoy my retirement, leaving the complexities of financial management in their safe hands.
