In this webinar we’ll highlight the rise in business owners and discuss some of the implications in terms of the need for financial planning.
Cashflow modelling can be a powerful tool to use within our financial planning conversations, but are there opportunities within this type of exercise that we’re underutilising or missing altogether?
In the first part of the presentation, we’ll look at three questions to ask a client during a cash flow modelling exercise to get them thinking about the need for protection and how might they cope if catastrophe struck.
We’ll then consider the benefits of pensions before looking at the implication of the annual allowance and the potential for the tapered annual allowance to apply to the business owner. We’ll consider the limited company, the wholly and exclusively rule and how the taxation of dividends works. In terms of extracting profits, the three options – salary, dividends and pension contributions are compared.
