decide, over time, to purchase a property. Faulkner International

Tax Sensitive
Financial Planning. |
 |
Whilst abroad, it is very important for you to arrange
your affairs in order to take advantage of the variations that exist
between the applicable tax jurisdictions.
All major Investment Houses and Institutions with whom Faulkner International
are connected offer investment vehicles whose return is allocated
on a Tax-Free basis, subject to the timely and correct planning of
one's tax affairs. This applies to both Capital and Regular contribution
arrangements.
Managing a UK property whilst abroad can also pose tax as well as
logistical problems. It is essential to be aware of implications in
these areas prior to making plans that need to be re-adjusted from
arms length, having moved overseas.
Please Note - Evaluating or setting up a personal tax structure,
is a costly exercise. We require a commitment fee of €500 which
is offset against fees incurred evaluating your requirements. |

policies, we can also include early access, phased retirement and
the transfer of pension plans or 'frozen' pensions.
