In retirement

Once you have retired, thoughts may turn to planning for care in later life or ensuring that you have wealth to pass on to loved ones.

As health tends to deteriorate with old age, itā€™s important to consider later life planning, which includes making provision for your care. It also involves careful estate planning to make sure that loved ones will inherit as much wealth as possible.

Our advisers will help you to:

  • Identify your concerns, the lifestyle you want to have in your later years and your hopes for passing on your wealth to loved ones.
  • Use estate planning to identify ways of managing your wealth with different types of trusts and insurances. This will help to ensure that no-one needs to pay more Inheritance tax (IHT) than is absolutely necessary.
  • 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.
