Sunday evening. The baby is asleep. The laptop is open. The pension portal has loaded for the first time in years.

In the latest chapter of the Life of Henry, we explore the moment most high earners will recognise - opening up a pension that has been quietly running on autopilot, and realising it may not be pointing where you actually want it to go.

Sometimes the issue is not the pension. It is finding the time to think about it properly.

Joanna's maternity leave is coming to an end. She and Henry are working through the same conversation thousands of professional couples have each year. Should she return to work? Is it worth it after childcare? What happens to her pension if she steps away? And what happens to the household if anything happens to Henry's income?

In the latest chapter of the Life of Henry, we look at how the childcare decision is rarely just about childcare.

The Henry series continues. When one income supports a growing family, the childcare decision becomes a planning decision. Tax, pensions and protection considered.

šŸ“Š New Investment Insight: The Age of Scarcity

What if inflation is not just about demand and interest rates, but something deeper?

Our latest Insight explores how global forces such as energy transition, artificial intelligence, and supply chain constraints are creating a world of structural scarcity.

Rather than a stable inflation environment, we may be entering a period of greater volatility, where prices are shaped by competition for limited resources.

In this first part, we look at:

The rebuild of the global energy system
The growing demand for key materials
The impact of AI and infrastructure expansion
What this means for investors

Inflation has cooled from its recent highs, but markets still appear unsettled.

Why?

Because the final stage of disinflation - often called ā€œthe last mileā€ - can be the most unpredictable.

Wage growth, services inflation and geopolitical shocks can all influence how quickly central banks are able to reduce interest rates.

In our latest Insight, we explore why the path of inflation matters just as much as the number itself, and what investors should be watching.
