The Government has confirmed proposals to replace the Lifetime ISA with a new First-Time Buyer ISA, removing withdrawal penalties and focusing the product entirely on helping people save for their first home.

Nick Feetenby, Associate Director of Mortgages, shares his thoughts:

“It’s great to see the Government recognise the need to support first-time buyers in getting on the property ladder. If implemented, this should provide a real incentive for those saving for their deposit, while complementing existing schemes such as enhanced affordability options from lenders and low-deposit mortgages that are already working to reduce the barriers buyers face.

Knowing which schemes are available, and how to make the most of them, can make a significant difference. Our fee-free mortgage advisers are well placed to guide all buyers through their options and support them every step of the way.”

As retirement gets closer, views on risk often begin to change.

The shift from saving to taking an income can raise important questions about how investments are structured, particularly in periods of market volatility.

Swipe to see how de-risking works in practice, why it’s not about sudden changes, and how a balanced approach can support long term financial plans.

The UK now has its 5th Prime Minister in 5 years. It’s 7th since Brexit.

Keir Starmer has resigned as Prime Minister. Whilst markets took the news in their stride, one thing seems certain: more political, and therefore economic, uncertainty lies ahead.

Even if Andy Burnham is coronated as successor, the process will take several weeks. The next steps remain unclear.

Ellis Watkins, Associate Director of Wealth, puts it into perspective:

“Markets have been anticipating and pricing in this change for some time. There have been no notable movements in longer term gilt yields or sterling off the back of this announcement.

What matters more than the resignation itself is the succession. Specifically, the choose of chancellor and whether they commit to the existing fiscal plan or revamp it.

For long term investors, it’s a time to be disciplined, not reactive. The fundamentals haven’t changed, only the headlines.

Millions of middle earners in the UK are not saving enough for retirement, even if they’ve been paying into a workplace pension for years.

The Government’s new Pension Commission interim report suggests that even people with full employment records, who contribute at the legal minimum throughout their working lives, are likely to fall short of a comfortable retirement income.

Auto-enrolment was a landmark achievement, 8% was always a starting point, not a destination.

If you’re in your 40s or 50s and haven’t had a proper pension review recently, it may be worth having a conversation. You might be in a better position than you think, or there may be some easy wins available.
