TRANSFERRING YOUR WEALTH
How to pass your wealth to your loved ones tax-efficiently
Transferring your wealth is the fourth stage of Wealth Management
Passing on wealth to loved ones is an important aspect of wealth management. An adviser can help you control what happens to your wealth through effective estate planning and can reduce or even eliminate the inheritance tax liabilities your family could face.
When advising on inheritance tax, your adviser will discuss the importance of having an up to date will. We can also help you set up a Lasting Power of Attorney to give you peace of mind knowing someone you can rely on would take care of your financial matters if the worst were to happen. A trust is another option that an adviser may consider appropriate for your circumstances, these can be tailored to your needs. Philanthropy and charitable giving is another consideration when transferring wealth; our advisers can help ensure your donations have maximum impact.
The levels and bases of taxation and reliefs from taxation can change at any time. The value of any tax relief depends on individual circumstances.
Will writing and Powers of Attorney involve the referral to a service that is separate and distinct to those offered by St. James’s Place and along with the Trusts are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
Transferring Wealth
The final stage of wealth management planning is transferring your wealth to the next generation. Your financial adviser will advise you on estate planning and inheritance tax issues to help achieve the most effective transfer of wealth to your loved ones.
