Leaving an inheritance can be an issue when there is a lot to leave. Although a wealth manager will help you plan ahead and reduce the final inheritance tax bill, a large estate needs working on several years in advance. A wealth manager will be invaluable in this respect as they can begin reducing the size of your taxable estate in a highly strategic way whilst you maintain sufficient funds to maintain your lifestyle.<\/p>\n The earlier you consider planning your estate<\/a> the better chance you have at utilising all of the tax opportunities available to you. Your wealth manager should always provide advice based on the most up to date knowledge of tax law. It is their job to make sure you are able to take full advantage of the exemptions and reliefs on offer in order to mitigate any tax bill. This means maximising the inheritance to your beneficiaries rather than the Government.<\/p>\n It may be the case that you have assets located in different countries. This means that your wealth manager will have to consider the rules of each jurisdiction. They will work with advisers, lawyers and other off-shore tax specialists in order to ensure compliance with the effects of multi-jurisdictional dispositions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Other countries have very different rules to the UK that can affect:<\/p>\n Many European countries have something known as \u2018forced heirship\u2019<\/a> as part of their laws on succession. If you live in Spain, France, Portugal, Malta or Cyprus, your wealth may be automatically divided between your spouse and children. This happens regardless of what your will says. Such laws even partly apply in Scotland. UK nationals however, may be able to override this rule through \u2018Brussels IV\u2019: the European Certificate of Succession regulation. This law lets you apply British law to your estate though you should seek advice to establish if this is the right approach for you specifically and if there would be any implications for you and your heirs. This is particularly relevant if you live or have property in France. In the UK, estate planning generally starts with the writing of a will<\/a> and may include the use of a trust<\/a>. When you move or own assets abroad, however, things are much more complicated.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” overlay_background=”primary” overlay_opacity=”16″ lg_spacing=”padding_top:110;padding_bottom:110″ background_image=”185″][vc_column][vc_row_inner background_color=”custom” lg_spacing=”margin_right:0;margin_left:0;padding_right:70;padding_left:70″ custom_background_color=”#ffffff” sm_spacing=”padding_right:30;padding_left:30″ xs_spacing=”padding_right:15;padding_left:15″][vc_column_inner][tm_spacer size=”lg:85″][tm_heading style=”with-separator-1″ custom_google_font=”” text_transform=”uppercase” align=”center” text_color=”primary” text=”OUR COMMITMENTS” font_size=”lg:14″ letter_spacing=”1px”][tm_spacer size=”lg:25″][tm_heading custom_google_font=”” align=”center” text=”The Costs Of A Wealth Manager” font_size=”sm:32;lg:36″][tm_spacer size=”lg:70″][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner background_color=”custom” lg_spacing=”margin_right:0;margin_left:0;padding_right:70;padding_bottom:40;padding_left:70″ custom_background_color=”#ffffff” sm_spacing=”padding_right:30;padding_left:30″ xs_spacing=”padding_right:15;padding_left:15″][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Once you employ the services of a wealth manager you embark upon an ongoing relationship. You will usually be required to pay your adviser a retainer for their services which could be a regular flat fee, or a percentage of the assets under their management. Sometimes this can work out more economical than paying several different fund managers to manage multiple portfolios.<\/p>\n Ask your potential managers about payment options when you first meet with them. Ask them to state their fees explicitly and to explain in detail what you get for that price. Also, compare several quotes.
