Savings & investment

The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the original amount invested.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance and should not be relied upon.

HM Revenue and Customs practice and the law relating to taxation are complex and subject to individual circumstances and changes which cannot be foreseen.

An ISA is a medium to long term investment, which aims to increase the value of the money you invest for growth or income or both. The value of your investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise. You may not get back the amount you invested.

Whether you’re saving for the short term or investing for the long term we’ll outline what’s available and what you need to think about before recommending the most suitable option or options for you.

Savings are generally for times when you may need to get at your money more quickly or you don’t wish to accept any risk to your capital. We can help you select suitable savings accounts depending on your circumstances and objectives.

Savings are different from investments, which are really for the longer term.

When investing, you take more risk to increase your chances of getting higher returns on your money, especially over the longer term (usually ten years or more).

We will discuss your attitude to investment risk, diversification, how to invest for different objectives and targets, asset allocation, and the different tax wrappers available to you before making any recommendations about a suitable investment strategy.

In most instances we suggest clients have a combination of savings and investments to address different goals and time horizons
