Budget Update – 3rd March 2021
The Chancellor has just finished presenting his budget speech to the house. The Buckingham Gate team is now busy analysing the budget document in detail and searching for any devil in the details. We will report back on any significant findings that become clear in the coming days, however, as expected, today’s budget was rather benign from a personal financial planning point of view.

Lies, Damn Lies and Speculation
As budget day approaches, the volume of rumour, speculation and mistruth is stepping up in traditional fashion.
Of course, there are the old favourites (you know, the things that the media report ‘might’ happen in the budget every single year, but never seem to actually occur) such as the removal of the 25% tax-free cash on pensions and restrictions to pension tax relief (for what it’s worth, I don’t believe we are likely to see either at this coming budget).
A Message From Matt – 11th December 2020
So how is it that we have already arrived at the end of 2020?
I think this year has been the ‘fastest, slowest’ year I have ever experienced. In some senses 2020 really seems to have dragged on. It seems forever since I saw my family or friends properly and I am sure we are all looking forward to hopefully getting back to this kind of thing as we move into the Spring next year and beyond!
