Generating an income from retirement
Retirement often signifies the start of a new chapter. An opportunity to pursue your passions, enjoy quality time with loved ones and take a well-deserved break after years of hard work. Building a comfortable nest egg for retirement is an accomplishment, but the real challenge begins when it’s time to convert those savings into a steady income.
Have you lost track of your pension pots?
It is easier than many people realise to lose track of an old pension pot. Changes and milestones in life, such as starting new jobs, moving houses or even changing your name, can make it challenging to keep track of your retirement savings. It is estimated that £26 billion in unclaimed pensions awaits reunion with their rightful owners in the UK.
New rules of inheritance tax on businesses and land
The October 2024 Budget proposed sweeping changes to Inheritance Tax (IHT), significantly tightening the laws that were previously more forgiving for families with trading businesses and farmland. Effective from April 2026, these types of assets will have reliefs capped at 100% for the first £1 million of qualifying assets. For valuations exceeding £1 million, the relief will reduce the IHT payable by 50%.
