Getting Married
Merging two lives means merging two financial worlds. Here’s how to start your marriage on solid ground.
- Review and update your pension beneficiaries and nominations
- Consolidate savings and review joint protection needs (life cover, critical illness)
- Create or update your Wills — marriage can invalidate existing ones
- Assess tax efficiency as a couple (ISA allowances, income splitting)
- Plan for future goals together: first home, family, retirement
Moving Home
One of life’s most expensive decisions deserves expert guidance, not just a good estate agent.
- Review your mortgage and explore remortgage opportunities to save
- Reassess your life and income protection insurance coverage levels
- Consider how the move affects your overall financial plan and goals
- Explore Stamp Duty implications and government schemes available to you
- Update your emergency fund to reflect new mortgage/rent commitments
Changing Jobs
A new job is exciting — but don’t leave valuable financial benefits behind at your old employer.
- Decide what to do with your old workplace pension — consolidate or leave?
- Compare your new employer’s pension scheme and contribution rates
- Review any employer-provided benefits you may be gaining or losing
- Assess salary sacrifice options and tax efficiency under your new terms
- Update income protection cover to match your new salary and notice period
