Frequently Asked Questions

Can I invest while living abroad?

Yes, choosing to live or work overseas also provides you with the prospect of building a solid investment portfolio. However, there are some important factors to be aware of including understanding which investment options are appropriate and efficient based on your location. Setting up a solid plan means that you can make the most of your expat status and build a future that offers you greater financial freedom in later life.

How much is enough for retirement?

A common question when planning for retirement is how much you need to save. The answer is dependent on many things – including your age, desired retirement age, earnings, health, lifestyle and more. In the end, retirement looks different for everyone – you may want to travel, spend time with family and friends or focus on hobbies or pursuits which your working life may not have given you time for.

The most important consideration is to think about how you want your retirement to look, and put in place sensible steps to help ensure your dreams can become reality.

How do I set and achieve financial goals?

Work with a financial planning professional to define clear, specific, and measurable goals. Break them into short-term, medium-term, and long-term objectives. Create a plan with actionable steps and track your progress regularly. Adjust your strategy as needed to stay on course.

What can I do if I don’t have an overseas pension?

A qualified financial planning professional can work with you to review your current assets, UK pension plans, current circumstances and long-term goals. They can then create an investment portfolio that you can contribute to on a monthly basis in place of pension contributions.

Can I contribute to an ISA whilst living abroad?

Although you can open an Individual Savings Account (ISA) when you live in the UK, you generally can’t save into it whilst you are living overseas (specifically no contributions can be made after the tax year in which you make the move abroad). It’s important that you also let your ISA provider know if you stop being a UK resident.

Whilst you are abroad you can keep your ISA open and continue to receive UK tax relief on any money and investments held in it. You can also transfer it to another provider if you feel the need to. As and when you return to the UK and reclaim your UK residence, you can begin to pay into your ISA again as long as you consider the annual ISA allowance. A professional adviser can share with you effective alternatives you can save into while abroad.
