2024 Pre-budget Thoughts
The upcoming budget has generated more debate, speculation and calls from clients than any other I can remember. We discussed Labour’s fiscal plans in our post-election webinar (and generally, despite the noise, our opinions remain pretty much as they were then). But there has an awful lot of noise and clients are understandably wondering if they should be doing something. Trying to second-guess the budget is the fiscal equivalent of market timing – it’s very difficult to get right and the chances are that, at best, you’ll make the right call about half the time. Our advice is that your starting point should be to decide what you want to achieve, look at the best way to fund it and then look for the most tax-efficient way of releasing those funds. Reversing that process and letting the tax tail wag the investment dog too often ends in tears – or at least disappointment.

'Sorry, we're cash only!'
The impact of the repeated increases to the interest rates on bond and equity markets has been harsh, leading to declines in asset valuations all while elevating the current returns on cash investments. In light of the current financial environment is it a good idea to switch to cash investments? As the old adage suggests, "cash is king", right? Well, not quite… Investing is a long-term endeavour - a horizon where cash suffers.

Buccaneers of The Financial Market
There are many hidden secrets waiting to be discovered and since ancient times, the allure of finding hidden treasure in unchartered territories has captivated the human imagination. Many courageous explorers have ventured into the depths of the ocean to try and unearth these precious treasures, but many have failed. In many ways, financial markets share many conceptual similarities with the ocean - mainly that markets are also deep and liquid. But thankfully, we seem to know a lot more about markets than we do about the ocean.
