Yes, we DO sell you something – Peace of Mind!

So, What Do We Do, You Might Ask?!

Well it´s quite obvious from the above that we can never be absolutely protected against this happening, but what we must do and can do is to check out thoroughly and diligently the Wealth Management company or Financial Adviser that we trust and take advice from. If they do not have a proven track record, longevity and experience within the financial services industry then surely we are handicapped from the start?

Unfortunately, it is far too easy in our internet driven society to believe the hype and marketing that can transform a small start-up company into a GIANT company on screen – but where´s the back up and proof that they will be around to support us if and when we need them in the future?

You owe it to yourself and your family to carry out your OWN due-diligence checks so that you have taken every possible precaution to protect yourself. At Blacktower we can offer you 32 years of continuous growth, commitment and dedication to providing clients with the BEST possible advice which will always be in their interests. I think it´s fair to say that if we hadn´t been doing that we wouldn´t still be here talking about it, would we?

UK basic state pension changes

by Keith Littlewood, International Financial Adviser Costa Blanca

A brand new state pension was ushered in on 6 April 2016 as a result of a massive shake-up. The new payout has been designed to make the whole process easier to understand, although it’s still far from simple.

The old system was in two parts, a basic state pension of £119.30 plus an additional pension, if applicable, with 30 years NI contributions required to get the maximum amount.  Under the new system there is a flat rate payment of £155.65 plus any protected payment for which you will need to have 35 years NI contributions to get the maximum amount.  There are also a minimum of 10 years in the NI system required to get anything at all.

What should you do with your pension?

One of the most common questions asked of expat financial services firms is what should clients do with their pensions. Some wish to keep all their money in a UK-based pension, some will look to transfer to a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS) and others will want to take a tax-free lump sum from their fund. In short, what an individual chooses to do will depend heavily on their personal circumstances together with any advice they receive from their expat financial services professional.
