ADVICE

Use A Ten-Point Annual Review Checklist

  • Use a 10-point checklist covering paperwork, cash flow, calendar, budget, savings, portfolio, protection, to-dos and priorities for your annual review.
  • Work through each item methodically so you spot errors and required actions before they become problems.
ANECDOTE

Payroll Mistakes Illustrate Cashflow Risk

  • Pete recounts payroll mistakes: paying a departed employee and missing a return-from-maternity payment.
  • Mistakes happen, so regular cashflow checks catch payroll and income errors early.
ADVICE

Manage Your Savings Rate And Account Mix

  • Monitor your savings rate (percentage of take-home pay) and adjust contributions when your income changes.
  • Choose the right account mix (pension vs ISA) and consider which partner should contribute where for tax efficiency.
