Why you might need to rethink your retirement savings
The average worker in the UK may face a significant shortfall in their annual retirement income. Research indicates that many plan to retire with an income of £48,868 a year, which includes the full State Pension of £11,542[1]. However, the reality paints a much bleaker picture.
Young women need to feel more confident about their financial futures
When it comes to investing, young women are noticeably lagging behind their male peers. Recent data paints a stark picture, revealing that only one-third (34%) of women aged 18-24 are investing their money outside of pensions[1]. By contrast, nearly two-thirds (64%) of young men in the same age group are choosing to invest, highlighting a significant gender imbalance in financial engagement at an early age.
Insights for taking control of your future planning
It is clear that enjoying a comfortable retirement is a common goal for many people. However, achieving this requires addressing difficult questions about your savings and vision for retirement. Contributing to a pension is essential for future planning, but how can you assess whether you are on the right track?
Reaching financial milestones and celebrating these achievements keeps you motivated
Starting a business can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. It’s tempting to devote much of your time and effort to developing your product or service, hiring the right people, and finding customers or clients. However, managing your financial health, both business and personal, is equally important.
Making the best decisions for your business and future
Planning for the future of your business can be daunting. Whether you are considering succession, retirement, or maximising the value of what you’ve built, the process often feels overwhelming without proper guidance.
