Inheritance & family wealth

Find an adviser who understands what changes when wealth arrives.

An inheritance can create a new set of decisions: what to keep in cash, what to invest, how to coordinate with pensions or property, and how the money fits with wider family plans.

Common situations

The money is only one part of the decision.

The right service depends on what the inheritance changes in the rest of your financial life.

Large cash inheritance

Moving from a large cash balance toward a plan without feeling pressured into acting immediately.

Inherited investments

Understanding whether existing investments fit your own goals, risk tolerance and tax position.

Property and mixed assets

Coordinating property, cash, pensions and investments rather than treating each decision separately.

Family wealth planning

Thinking about how wealth should support you now and potentially pass to future generations later.

Questions to ask

What makes an adviser a good fit?

How often do you advise people after receiving an inheritance?

Regular experience can matter when the client has never managed this level of wealth before.

What type of inherited assets do you normally work with?

Cash, investments and property can create different planning questions.

What should I expect to pay initially and ongoing?

Ask for actual pounds and the service included.

Who else may need to be involved?

Some situations may also involve solicitors, accountants or tax specialists.
