If AI reduces the cost of advice, what happens to the traditional adviser model? Some argue advisers will become high-end financial coaches, working deeply with just 50 clients.

Last week at an event, I enjoyed a meal catered by a fantastic independent café and restaurant. One of the speakers commented on the wonderful food and then gave a plug for the current campaign to cut VAT on hospitality businesses from 20% to 10%. It sounded like an obvious way to help struggling businesses, then I went home and looked at the numbers.

In this discussion, we explore why large language models may not be the biggest concern. The real shift begins when AI starts building its own code — and when human engineers can’t keep up. We also unpack the launch of Hazel in the US and how early beta AI tools are already influencing stock prices and outperforming existing financial software in areas like tax optimisation and data aggregation.

Most people assume success comes from better equipment, better training, or a more sophisticated strategy. In 1983, a 61-year-old potato farmer named Cliff Young proved otherwise when he lined up against Australia's best ultramarathon runners and changed the race forever. His remarkable story contains three powerful lessons that apply just as much to investing as they do to endurance running.

In 1696, Britain taxed windows and people responded by bricking them up. Three centuries later, our tax system still creates incentives that encourage avoidance over productivity, only now the bricks are hidden in pensions, reduced hours, and declined promotions...

In 2017, Snap went public with shares that gave investors ownership but no voting rights, prompting major index providers like S&P and FTSE Russell to restrict companies with unequal voting structures from their flagship indices. Now, nearly a decade later, the same debate over shareholder rights and corporate control has resurfaced around the three largest stock market listings in history.

I once advised a busy CEO who was one of the most generous, people-focused individuals I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.

This is one of those blogs I have debating writing. The subject is not easy and it is emotive. When pensions were brought into inheritance tax from April 2027, a hard deadline created consequences beyond spreadsheets.

Without a phased introduction, a cliff edge appears. We are already seeing terminally ill people refusing treatment to die before the new rules arrive...
