With so much uncertainty in the world so much of the time, many people wonder whether now is a good time to invest. Is there ever really a “perfect” time to get started?

  • When markets fall, it can be tempting to move into cash or sell investments. But can making decisions based on fear or headlines do more harm than good?
  • We often hear the phrase “it’s time in the market, not timing the market”. What does that actually mean for ordinary investors?
  • What are the key principles people should follow if they want to build a successful long-term investment strategy? How do you help your clients invest with peace of mind?

These views are put forward for consideration purposes only as the suitability of any investment is dependent on individual circumstances; take individual personalised advice. The value of investments can fall as well as rise as can the income arising from them. Past performance should not be seen as an indication of future performance.

Tax rates, scope and reliefs may change. Any statements concerning taxation are based upon our understanding of current taxation laws and practices which are subject to change. Tax information has been summarised; individuals should seek personalised advice.
