Venture Capital Trusts (VCTs) and Enterprise Investment Schemes (EIS) are forms of investments in smaller, early-stage startup companies. They are government-backed investment programmes that give private investors tax relief on their investments for providing finance for these companies to grow.

Last month, Investment Director Natalie Brown sat down with Connect magazine to discuss her life at CGWM, the changing face of investment management, and how she balances a successful career with a busy family life.

We have always encouraged our wealth planning clients to include provisions for long-term care in their plans. This might be in a care home, but we have found that, since the pandemic, many people now prefer the idea of being looked after in their own homes.

In order to meet your goals, both short- and long-term, you need to have a thorough understanding of your financial position, so that you can make the most of your money and create a comprehensive wealth plan for the future.
