Expats can stay strong in face of Brexit

However, these are the salient points to keep in mind:

  • Blacktower’s clients should be reassured that for now they retain the same residency status and healthcare benefits as they did prior to the Brexit vote.
  • Tax treaties, investments and financial arrangements are not dependent on the EU but on both individual wealth management firms and individual member states, Blacktower’s members should feel confident in moving towards the future.
  • Blacktower is in a strong position to take advantage of any volatility in the market and expects to be able to benefit from any opportunities which present themselves, such as the ability to make favourable purchases of high quality companies with solid dividends.
  • Blacktower operates right across the EU, including France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, the Canary Islands, Gibraltar, Grand Cayman as well as the UK. In the short to medium term our wealth management services and financial advice will not be affected by the Brexit vote and we look forward to serving the needs of our clients whatever the future may hold.

Will I outlive my retirement savings?

Golden Piggy BankThe Office for National Statistics puts UK life expectancy at 79.4 years for men and 83.1 years for women. Today, a 65-year-old man can expect to live for 18.5 more years, while a woman would typically have 21 more years left in her. Of course, life expectancies are averages – so this won’t hold true for everyone. Your lifestyle, diet, genetic make-up and wealth could all affect how long you will actually live for, with luck also playing a big role. Obviously, living a longer life is a good thing in theory, but from a retirement savings perspective, it can pose a real challenge. In fact, 60% of baby boomers admitted in a recent Allianz study that they’re more fearful of outliving their savings than of dying.
