Britons stash over £1bn at home as interest rates on savings dwindle

The most popular reasons the 2,000 people surveyed gave for keeping cash at home include being able to s ee it, using it for everyday spending, and convenience.  Many are unhappy with the interest they were making on other savings and a whopping 17 per cent said their savings were generating no interest at all.

Piggy banks are a great starting point for children learning the basics of saving money, but there is a clear opportunity for adults to gather their stockpiles together and make their money work harder for them.  Whether it is under the mattress, in a bottle, or in a sock drawer, that money could be contributing towards your savings goals.

Surge in Britons becoming EU citizens

PassportFrom pension transfers into beneficial QROPS to careful tax planning, expats have a lot to consider so that they can be financially confident and live their life abroad to the fullest.

But with Brexit looming, there are other considerations afoot. For example, should expats keep their British citizenship or apply for nationality in their new expat homeland? And according to new statistics, it appears that the Brexit referendum result has had a significant effect on the number of Britons gaining citizenship elsewhere in the EU.

Figures from Eurostat, the EU’s statistics agency, show a substantial surge in the number of Britons acquiring citizenship in other EU countries between 2015 (2,478) and 2016, when the number more than doubled to 6,555 – that’s an increase of 165 percent.
