Financial planning for the key stages in life – Tilney Group – Thursday 16 September at 5pm
No matter what stage you are at in life and career, it is important to think about your financial future. We all want to enjoy life, look after our families and hopefully retire one day but often, as busy professionals we don’t invest the time to think about our own financial planning.
In this interactive panel discussion, SYLA will joined by a team from Tilney and Smith & Williamson to highlight the key areas to consider, and actions to take, at the different stages of your life and career. Topics will include:
- Engaging with your finances;
- Potential impact of career break;
- Saving for children;
- Protection of benefits and allowances as earnings increase; and
- Planning for retirement.
There will be the opportunity for live Q&A following the panel.
