As you are all probably familiar with by now, one of the most exciting developments for our business was confirmed at the end of last year when we merged with Bellpenny, and as of January we rolled out the Ascot Lloyd branding across the wider company.

I want to highlight to you a critical point in the financial calendar that is fast approaching and if you haven’t already, requires your attention; the end of tax year.
The current ISA allowance for 2017/18 is £20,000 and the deadline is 5th April 2018. There’s not long to go, but it’s still not too late to make the most of your tax-free allowance. I would advise you to get in touch with your adviser if you haven’t already done so and they can guide you through every step of the process.
On the topic of the end of tax year, our tax and trust expert provides an insight into utilising allowances and the Additional Permitted Subscription (APS) following the death of a spouse or civil partner.

Take a look at our article Protecting Your Investments Using An AIM Inheritance Tax ISA and Planning with the Inheritable ISA allowance for more detail.

Our Glasgow based financial adviser James Peer explores the Government reforms which were announced nearly three years ago in his latest article Reviewing the Changes to Pension Freedom Withdrawals.
