It is important to be aware that that any financial adviser firms situated outside the UK would usually be unable to accommodate your financial management needs once you become a UK resident. This is the case regardless of whether the investments you have abroad are to remain in place, or you plan to transfer things to UK-based options.
The rare exception would be if an international adviser firm has UK regulatory licensing already in place.
If you are looking to return to the UK, extreme care should be taken if your existing (non-UK) adviser suggests that you can continue to be advised by them once you have relocated. You will not benefit from financial protection as you would be if you were to receive advice from a UK-based and regulated adviser firm. These important protections include the:
Regrettably, we have come across non-UK adviser firms that are unaware of the above rules and regulations, and who continue to try to advise returning UK resident clients. This leads to newly returned UK resident clients being advised, even if inadvertently, to contravene some UK tax rules and regulations, potentially incurring the wrath of HMRC in so doing!
By ensuring you have a fully compliant solution and are completely protected with the advice you are given, you can have peace of mind knowing that your wealth is being managed professionally and, importantly, in a compliant and fully protected manner.
*Cover that the adviser firm must have to adequately protect its UK clients in the event of a financial loss being deemed due to advice given.
The complexities of the financial world can seem intimidating. With the myriad of differing tax rules, investment regulations, and more, it can be extremely challenging to know whether or not your money is working as efficiently as possible for you.
This is where we come in.
With our specialist advice service tailored to UK expatriates and with UK roots, we are well versed in the differing types of solutions relevant to your circumstances.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution. However, being completely independent, we have ensured that our access to the entire market enables us to service clients in a way that is just as unique as them.
To find out what you may be missing, get in touch. You have nothing to lose and potentially much to gain.
