Could your pension affect your family's Inheritance Tax bill?

From 6 April 2027, most unused pension funds and pension death benefits are due to be brought within the value of a person's estate for Inheritance Tax purposes.

This could change how some families approach estate planning and the wealth they intend to pass on to the next generation.

While many estates will remain outside the scope of Inheritance Tax, those with significant pension
savings may need to review their arrangements.

Understand how the changes could affect your estate.

Review your existing plans.

Consider whether your current arrangements still meet your family's needs.

Planning ahead can help you understand your options before the changes take effect.

Speak to us if you'd like help understanding the tax implications.

Under 40? A Lifetime ISA could give your savings a boost.

If you're saving for your first home or for later life, a Lifetime ISA (LISA) is worth understanding.

Here's how it works:
> Save up to £4,000 a year.
> Receive a 25% government bonus on eligible contributions, worth up to £1,000 a year.
> You must make your first payment into a Lifetime ISA before your 40th birthday, but you can continue contributing until age 50.

You can use your savings towards an eligible first home purchase or, subject to the rules, access them from age 60. Other withdrawals usually incur a 25% government withdrawal charge.

If you're approaching 40, it's worth checking whether a Lifetime ISA fits your circumstances.

Get in touch if you'd like to understand the rules and how it could fit into your wider financial plans.

With the Autumn Budget on 28 October, the Prime Minister has refused to rule out further tax rises.

The government says it will take a careful approach to the Uk's finances, but with limited room in the public finances, businesses and individuals will be watching closely.

So what could this mean for you?

It's too early to know exactly what will be announced but if you're a business owner, director or self-employed, now could be a good time to understand your current tax position and think about any financial decisions you have coming up.

28 October 2026 - Budget Day

We'll be following the announcements and breaking down the changes that could actually affect you and your business.

What would you most like to see in the Budget - a tax cut, more support for
businesses, or simply some certainty?

Pubs & hotels: could your business rates bill be about to change?

The Government is reviewing how business rates valuations for pubs and hotels are calculated, following significant increases in rateable values at the 2026 revaluation.

The aim is to make the system fairer and more transparent - and give hospitality businesses
greater certainty when planning ahead.

A Call for Evidence is now being carried out, with the review due to report to the Treasury by March 2027, ahead of the next revaluation.

For pubs, hotels and other hospitality businesses, business rates can have a significant impact on costs and cash flow - so changes to how properties are valued are worth keeping an eye on.

If you run a pub or hotel, have your business rates changed significantly this year?

We'll keep you updated as the review progresses and more details emerge.

Could tax-free shopping bring tourists - and billions - back to the UK?

A new report from the Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR) suggests that reintroducing VAT-free shopping for international visitors could add £11.5 billion to the UK economy It could also potentially attract up to 2.35 million additional visitors every year.

And there could be a benefit for the Treasury too, with the report estimating a potential £2.6 billion net gain.

The proposal is now gaining attention ahead of the Autumn Budget on 28 October, with major UK businesses calling for the scheme to return.

Of course, this is a proposal - not a confirmed Budget measure.

But it raises an interesting question:
> Would bringing back tax-free shopping make the UK more attractive to international visitors?

For retailers, hospitality businesses and the wider economy, it could be a significant change.

We'll be watching the Autumn Budget closely and sharing the key announcements that could affect businesses and individuals.
