  • Wealth Management | My Site

    Wealth Management Wealth Management is effectively the controlling of the mix of asset classes (EG Shares, gilts, property, cash) that you invest in. It also involves the choice of fund manager (EG Fidelity and Jupiter) or in the case of a stockbroker, individual stocks and shares. ​ Wealth Management is an important process in all types of investment including pensions, ISA's Investment Bonds and General Investment Accounts. ​ Wealth managers can either work on a discretionary or advised basis. Discretionary means that the wealth manager has total control as to which assets you invest in and can switch these assets at anytime without your prior agreement. Discretionary managers also normally are allowed to hold clients money within their own (ring fenced) accounts. ​ Advisory managers on the other hand are unable to hold client's monies and also need authority from the client for every change within a portfolio. ​ ​ The majority of Financial advisers are Advisory Wealth managers, but due to limited experience, ability or desire many will outsource the process to a discretionary manager. ​ Tara Financial Services Ltd are advisory managers, but we consider the choice and mix of assets to be an integral part of the planning process we offer clients. In the majority of cases we will endeavour to create a bespoke portfolio specific for your requirements. We can also, if employed to do so, complete regular reviews of the portfolio to ensure its continued suitability and make any adjustments over time to take account of market and economic conditions, or changes in your circumstances. All recommended changes will have to be agreed by you, which though slower to implement also means you have control over your investments at all times. ​ If you have existing investments, Tara Financial Services can take over their regular management and employ the same bespoke process to ensure the portfolio matches your needs. ​ ​ To find out more contact us now on 0118 979 6002

  • Your options at retirement | My Site

    Your Options at Retirement So now you have reached the age you are thinking of retiring or part retiring. ​ ​ What are the best ways of making sure your income is what it needs to be over the rest of your lifetime? ​ ​ This question has numerous answers especially as we now have the new flexibilities that pensions offer. ​ ​ Pensions are the primary source of income in retirement and we have many year's experience in helping people decide whether drawdown, annuities, phased drawdown, so called "third way" products and the new "Uncrystallised Pension Commencement Lump Sum" system would be most appropriate. ​ All of these systems are complex and unless you are well versed in their operation it is easy to fall foul of terminology, unexpected risks, pension company bureaucracy and the potential loss of money. ​ We try to help you through this minefield and when requested we will continue to review your circumstances on a regular basis to ensure the plan originally put in place continues to work. ​ Pensions are not the only source of income however so we take a more holistic view of your financial position. This means we may look to use alternative investments to achieve your aims in addition to the pension pot you have accumulated over your working life. ​ In other words we are here to help make the most out of your retirement whilst making sure your long term financial wellbeing is as secure as possible.
