BLACKTOWER VIEW – Keith Littlewood in Murcia and Costa Cálida

New beginnings

Most commonly, Keith’s clients are new retirees who are between 60 and 65. Often Keith and his new clients sit down and discuss things over a glass of wine or a cup of coffee in the comfort of a home or café environment rather than in an office. After all, many of his clients are retirees who have just escaped offices and workplaces, what better than to enjoy your financial planning in a relaxed atmosphere.

Every new client relationship begins with a no-obligation conversation and this suits Keith just fine; he loves his job and he loves talking to people.

Keith’s clients all have one thing in common: they wish to get most out of their money so that they can enjoy their retirement to the greatest degree possible. As an international financial adviser and expat, Keith brings a uniquely informed perspective to help clients organise their investments and tax affairs.

Keith’s background in financial services encompasses a 25 year plus career working for firms such as Natwest, RBS and Royal London.

Type of Pensions – Jargon Buster by Laura Mann Regional Manager Canary Islands

Blacktower FM - Costa Blanca - PensionsAs you already know there are a substantial number of pension types available.  How we came to have them, or what they actually are, still remains a mystery to many of us since these were thrust upon us (to some extent) by well meaning employers way back when.  This week we´re going to bust the Pension Jargon for the types of Pensions available.

Cash Balance Pension

A Cash Balance Pension is a pension arrangement, where your employer promises you a pension pot of a specified amount, when you reach retirement age.  Typically, the amount is calculated as a proportion of your salary for each year of service.  You know how much your pot will be, but there is no promise as to the amount of pension you will be able to buy (or take) from it.
