McKnight Associates Wealth Management

When it comes to managing your money, making short-term or last minute decisions can end up costing you more in late payments, lost interest or penalties. But getting your house in order and starting some regular savings and money management habits can make all the difference to your financial – and emotional – wellbeing ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eW7AfNmG #taxplanning #McKnightAssociates

If there’s one word to describe the UK tax system, it’s ‘complicated’. Regulations, as we saw in the Autumn Budget, can change frequently and even if you’re more informed than most, it’s easy to misinterpret the rules – and end up walking into a 60% tax trap without realising ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/e4VF3_5K #taxplanning #McKnightAssociates

Pensions are a long-term product, can very tax efficient and they're one of the main ways to save for retirement. So, even if you’re in your late 40s, it can be worth setting one up, since there’s still plenty of time to make the most of the tax advantages.

🎄Christmas has arrived in the McKnight office in Aberdeen! #McKnightAssociates #Aberdeen

A study by AXA and CEBR indicate that staff are feeling increasingly disengaged in the workplace, fuelled by elevated levels of burnout, stress and struggles with mental health, not helped by a high level of global volatility and uncertainty. This amounts to 23.3 million sick days a year - organisations can’t afford to neglect this issue. So how staff wellbeing can help you gain a competitive edge? ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/enT_us6x #McKnightAssociates #healthandwellbeing

Gifting wealth has various tax implications, working with an expert adviser can ensure you’re passing on money in a tax-efficient manner and making the most of any available allowances ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/e8FJ6Z_V The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds selected and may fall as well as rise. You may get back less than the amount invested. The levels and bases of taxation, and reliefs from taxation, can change at any time and are generally dependent on individual circumstances.
