Your Money

Whether you’re saving for your children’s education, building up a deposit for a second property or simply putting some money away for a rainy day, creating a successful investment portfolio can be a bewildering task.

You will need to take into account your attitude to risk, your need for growth and all the relevant tax opportunities and implications.

Where will you put your money?

Money

AS Financial Solutions will help you simplify the process by ensuring we match up the most suitable solution and strategy to your needs. After completing a detailed personal review of your current financial position, including your aspirations and objectives. We will help you manage Your Money taking into account:

  • The General Economic Climate and Expectations
  • Your Short, Medium and Long Term Goals
  • Your Views on Risk and Reward

Since wealth management is an ongoing process, we will aim to meet you on a regular basis to ensure your portfolio is on track and in line with your financial planning goals. In most cases, wealth management will fall into one of two classes – Savings or Investments.

Savings

Most people will save by putting aside a regular sum from their disposable income into an account for their short term financial planning. The way in which this money needs to be invested will vary from person to person, according to their circumstances, likely future needs and their attitude to risk. What is important to remember, though, is that investing in a well balanced, tax- efficient portfolio is more advantageous than placing money in just one type of investment. The most common forms of savings schemes are listed below:

  • Individual Savings Account (ISAs)
  • Bank & Building Society Accounts
  • National Savings
  • Regular Savings Plans

The Financial Services Authority does not regulate deposit accounts and national savings.

Investments

Are normally considered to be the medium to long term financial planning and will sometimes result from a legacy, maturing insurance policy, a work-related bonus, a retirement or redundancy package, although equally it could be regular investment from income. Investing in a well-balanced tax-efficient portfolio will be far better than putting the whole amount into just one investment type. The most common forms of investment schemes are listed below:

  • Investment Bonds - Onshore & Offshore
  • Guaranteed Income/Growth Bonds
  • Unit Trusts
  • Investment Trusts
  • Open Ended Investment Companies (OEICS)
  • Stocks and Shares ISAs

The value of your investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount invested. The Financial Services Authority does not regulate some types of offshore investments.
