Investing for early retirement

Leaving the stresses and strains of work behind is an attractive prospect, especially if it’s earlier than you’d originally planned. But it’s a decision full of potential pitfalls. That’s why good financial planning and a careful investment strategy for early retirement are essential.

How we can help you invest for early retirement

Knowing exactly how to invest to ensure you can retire early can be daunting. Your investments will also need to be structured carefully, so the sooner you start planning your early retirement the better.

Your dedicated Wealth Planner will have the expertise and, importantly, the independence to advise you on the best way forward. They will:

  • Review your current financial situation and help build a diversified investment portfolio suited to your individual needs
  • Take you through a cash flow planning exercise to see if early retirement is realistic and achievable for you
  • Stress-test plans against various scenarios such as market falls and rising inflation
  • Determine the best investment strategy to help you retire early
  • Review your plans on a regular basis and make adjustments as and when they are needed.

Investment involves risk. The value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

The tax treatment of all investments depends upon individual circumstances and the levels and basis of taxation may change in the future. Investors should discuss their financial arrangements with their own tax adviser before investing.
