What’s the issue?
In the last five years, with the rapid transition of financial services going digital, there has been a vast reduction in the number of wealth managers and pensions specialist’s in Asia. Consequently, clients who require pension advice assistance are having fewer face-to-face review sessions with those managing their pensions and portfolios. As a result, clients suffer financially, due to insufficient investment fund alerts and updates. It’s even more arduous for expats in Hong Kong, who are unsure of how they should use their old pension left in their home countries. Some British expats, for instance, have transferred their UK pensions already, while some others are still looking for how to best manage the funds within their UK pensions.
How do we tackle this issue?
In light of this changing landscape, UK Expat Pension Reviews was founded to help British expatriates gain better insight into their pension funds and investment portfolios. One important service offered is to evaluate whether it is worthwhile to change investment tactics to focus on better-performing funds after a successful pension transfer.
Now you may ask, “Why the need for a pension review?” Reviewing your pension funds regularly is essential; should there be a shortfall, the need for immediate action is obvious and necessary. On the contrary, if your retirement savings are broadly on track, you can still take further steps to achieve the income you want to have when you retire. To put it simply, the right decision on pension transfer makes all the difference between retiring happily with a great pension pot and retiring with an under-valued pension pot, leading to a lower standard of living.

Because every clients’ circumstances differ, UK Expat Pension Reviews offers individual advice that is tailored to each client. They are committed to helping you manage your pension in a way that is best for you and your retirement plans.
