Many British expatriates move abroad with long-standing financial arrangements already in place, including relationships with advisers they have trusted for years. However, living in another country can introduce new tax, pension and estate planning considerations, making it important to review whether your existing advice remains suitable for your circumstances and country of residence.

New RockFM episode with Nick Cairns, Senior Partner at Blevins Franks, exploring the key factors expatriates should consider when choosing a financial adviser. He discuss the impact of post-Brexit regulation, the importance of local tax and succession knowledge, and why cross-border financial planning often requires expertise that goes beyond traditional UK-based advice.

  • Does living abroad change what you should expect from a financial adviser?
  • What regulatory considerations should expatriates be aware of when working with a UK-based adviser?
  • What questions should you ask to determine whether your adviser can continue supporting you effectively overseas?
  • Why is local expertise on taxation, pensions and succession planning so important?
  • What advantages can locally based advisers offer to British expatriates in Cyprus?
  • How can cross-border financial planning help ensure your arrangements remain suitable and tax-efficient?
