In the latest episode of Markets Unwrapped, Craig Melling, Director of Investment, and Tom Sparke, Investment Manager at Progeny Asset Management, cut through the headlines and explore what these developments could mean for markets and long-term investors.

For many individuals and families, revisiting a Will later in life is rarely just a legal exercise. It’s a deeply personal process that invites reflection on a lifetime of achievements, relationships, values and responsibilities.

It often raises important questions:

- Have I done enough to protect the people I care about most?
- Have I made my wishes clear?
- Could I make things easier for those I leave behind?

These conversations aren't always easy, which is why they're so often postponed. But taking the time to plan today can provide clarity, certainty and peace of mind for both you and your loved ones in the years ahead.

In our latest article, legal and financial experts explore the emotional side of legacy planning, the consequences of delay and how a joined-up approach can help ensure your wealth, values and wishes are passed on as intended.

The final months of the year often arrive quicker than expected. Before the festive season begins and calendars fill up, autumn offers an opportunity to pause and reflect on what we've worked hard for throughout the year.

Now is a good time to ask yourself:

- Have you made progress towards your savings goals?
- Are there financial habits you've developed this year that have served you well?
- Have your priorities changed since January?
- Are there areas where small adjustments could make a meaningful difference?

For the past two years, AI has dominated investment headlines but are investors starting to look elsewhere?

August highlighted an important shift in markets.

While AI-related companies continued to demonstrate strong growth, some of the strongest returns came from outside the largest technology stocks. Market performance broadened across sectors, regions and company sizes, with financials, industrials, energy and smaller companies all contributing to returns.

At the same time, investors continued to monitor:
- Inflation and interest rate expectations
- Rising government borrowing and bond market volatility
- Geopolitical developments and their impact on growth
- The ongoing adoption of AI across industries

A broader range of opportunities emerging across global markets is an encouraging development for investors and reinforces the value of maintaining a well-diversified portfolio.

In the latest episode of Markets Unwrapped, our investment experts discuss the key themes shaping markets today and the outlook for the months ahead.

Are your SSAS arrangements still fit for purpose in today’s changing IHT landscape?

Self-Invested Small Self-Administered Schemes (SSASs) have long been a powerful tool for business owners and families, offering flexibility around commercial property investment, succession planning and intergenerational wealth transfer.

But as the Inheritance Tax (IHT) environment evolves, the conversation is shifting beyond tax efficiency alone.

Trustees and advisers increasingly need to consider:
- The practical implications of member death
- Liquidity challenges where schemes hold illiquid assets
- Trustee governance and decision-making processes
- The importance of letters of wishes and death benefit nominations
- Opportunities for succession and intergenerational planning
- The value of regular strategic reviews

Our latest guide, "SSAS Planning in a Changing IHT Environment," explores these key considerations and provides practical insights for solicitors, trustees, accountants and business owners.

Proactive planning today can help ensure SSAS arrangements continue to support both family and business objectives tomorrow.

What does independence in later life really mean?

For many, it's not simply about having enough money. It's about having the freedom to make choices, remain in control and live life on their own terms.

As women tend to live longer than men, many women will spend part of later life living alone – whether that's through widowhood, divorce, or changing family circumstances. This can be both empowering and challenging.

Financial security provides opportunities, but independence is built through careful planning. The decisions made today can have a significant impact on the options available tomorrow.
