How to enter the international advice market
The ebb and flow of the global economy means that, as some people migrate to the UK, others leave it, creating opportunities for international financial advice.
The new Labour government has confirmed that the current tax regime for non-UK domiciled individuals will be replaced with a residence-based test from 6 April 2025, so international advice firms can expect more enquiries.
If UK advice firms want to develop a global presence, how should they go about it?
Working out the options
Branching out internationally is not something that can be achieved on a whim. Advisers must obtain the relevant permissions to advise in different parts of the world, and know how to navigate the quirks of various tax jurisdictions.
We’ve all heard horror stories of people moving out [of the UK] and it not being what they expected
Qualifications and regulatory requirements can vary greatly between countries and the location in which an adviser is based will also have practical implications for the areas they can cover.
“If I wanted to live in the US, doing a load of Australian exams would be pointless,” says Chris Ball, co-founder of international advice firm Hoxton Capital Management.
“It would be impossible — or at least very difficult — to be on the same time zone. But I could do the UK and Europe from there.”
One way for UK firms to start out is by partnering another firm that is already established in the international advice market. But this market comprises a wide range of businesses, with varying reputations and ways of operating, which means that, to do it properly, there is no fast-track entry.
A basic UK Level 4 qualification would be expected by most companies now
“You’ve got companies that are very commission and sales driven; then you’ve got companies that are fee based and more financial planning focused,” says Ball.
Being selective
Ball says UK advisers should ensure they do their homework on prospective partners and be wary of whom they get into bed with.
“I think a lot of people do that, but we’ve all heard horror stories of people moving out [of the UK] and it not being what they expected,” he says. “No one wants to be in that position.”
According to Academy of Life Planning chief executive Steve Conley, the advice industry in some countries resembles that of the UK as it was 20 years ago, with product sales being incentivised by commission, and ‘bad apples’ appearing in different guises through phoenix firms.
You’ve got companies that are very commission and sales driven; then you’ve got companies that are fee based and more financial planning focused
Conley believes international advice firms should charge fixed fees for financial planning to “eliminate conflicts of interest, promote trust and advocate market integrity”. He suggests UK advice firms seek to partner a well-established firm that has highly qualified advisers and good, independent customer reviews.
“Don’t go by the awards they have won because there are a lot of vanity awards in this industry. They can be paid for rather than be voted for by the public,” he says.
A question of quality
Diane Bentley, a former nurse, lost half her pension when an international advice firm advised her to transfer her National Health Service pot to an overseas Qrops pension scheme when she moved to France. Now back in the UK, she runs a Facebook group providing support to others who have experienced bad offshore advice.
Bentley says that, because the international advice market is commission led, the incentive to get more UK pensions offshore becomes extremely risky.
The stereotype of a second-hand car salesman going to Dubai to become a financial adviser is pretty much gone
“It is poorly regulated and the advisers are badly trained. We want them trained to the UK standard — a minimum of Level 4,” she says.
“Why shouldn’t we expect the same standards as people onshore are getting?”
Ball acknowledges that the international advice market has had its problems, but says it is cleaning itself up.
“A basic UK Level 4 qualification would be expected by most companies now,” he says.
“And the stereotype of a second-hand car salesman going to Dubai to become a financial adviser is pretty much gone. The quality of people here in the Middle East and in Australia advising British expats is really good.”

Tony Wickenden: Should you advise pre-emptive action to save clients from CGT?
Tony Wickenden discussed the potential impact of rising capital gains tax (CGT) following Budget warnings. He noted the government’s reluctance to increase income tax, National Insurance, or VAT, leading to speculation about CGT increases. Wickenden suggested that if clients are already planning disposals, they should consider completing them sooner. He highlighted concerns that higher CGT rates might prompt wealthy individuals to defer gains. He also mentioned potential mid-year changes and the importance of balancing tax considerations with investment decisions.

Phoenix Group scraps plans to sell protection business
Phoenix Group cancelled plans to sell its SunLife protection business, citing uncertainty in the protection market. Instead, the company will focus on enhancing SunLife’s value, as it remains a key asset serving the UK’s over-50s market. Phoenix had acquired SunLife from AXA in 2016. The decision was announced in Phoenix’s 2024 interim results. CEO Andy Curran highlighted growth in the Workplace business and the expansion of the Group’s retirement offerings, including a fixed-term annuity launched by Standard Life.

Steven Cameron: Is it time? What flat-rate pensions tax relief would look like
Steven Cameron explored potential pension tax reforms ahead of the 30 October Budget, speculating that Chancellor Rachel Reeves might introduce a flat-rate tax relief system. Currently, tax relief is given at an individual’s marginal rate, benefiting higher-rate taxpayers. A move to a 30% flat rate would favour basic-rate taxpayers but reduce relief for higher earners. Employer contributions could also face changes, possibly affecting defined benefit schemes. Cameron urged advisers to discuss possible changes with clients and consider making extra pension contributions before the Budget.
Andy Bell: Where will Labour find £22bn?
Andy Bell discussed how Labour might address the UK’s £22bn fiscal deficit without raising VAT, income tax, or National Insurance. He suggested potential reforms to capital gains tax (CGT), pension tax relief, inheritance tax (IHT), and the introduction of a wealth tax. Aligning CGT with income tax rates and introducing a flat-rate pension tax relief could raise revenue but may face backlash. A wealth tax and IHT adjustments also carry challenges, including political risks and administrative complexity. Bell stressed the need for balanced, fair policy design.
Brooks Macdonald to acquire Norwich-based financial advice firm
Brooks Macdonald announced the acquisition of Norwich-based Lucas Fettes Financial Planning, subject to regulatory approval by early 2025. Lucas Fettes manages £890m in assets across 1,600 personal clients and £300m from corporate clients. The acquisition aims to enhance Brooks Macdonald’s financial planning capabilities and expand its presence in East Anglia. Lucas Fettes, one of Brooks’ top introducers since 1996, will integrate into Brooks Macdonald’s direct wealth business, aligning with the group’s strategy to focus on UK investment management and financial planning.
Octopus Investments launches IHT and estate planning helpdesk
Octopus Investments launched ‘Ask Octopus,’ a helpdesk offering technical support on inheritance tax (IHT) and estate planning for financial advisers. The service, accessible via their website, provides answers to advisers’ queries and allows direct meetings with experts. It covers IHT rules, estate planning, wills, and probate. Octopus aims to assist advisers, particularly those without technical team support. This launch comes as IHT receipts have surged, prompting calls for reform ahead of Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ 30 October Budget.
Skerritts buys Harrogate-based advice firm
Skerritts Group acquired Harrogate-based Ellis Bates Financial Advisers, adding over £1bn in assets under management and strengthening its presence in Northern England. The deal, backed by Sovereign Capital Partners, was set to complete in September 2024. Skerritts, aiming for national expansion, has made 11 acquisitions since Sovereign’s £55m investment in 2021. Skerritts CEO Paul Feeney praised the acquisition, while Ellis Bates’ managing director Michael Cope highlighted shared values and ambitions for growth within the partnership.
Advisers tweak processes in light of retirement income review
Following the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) thematic review of retirement income advice, most financial advisers adjusted their processes, according to Wesleyan. The FCA’s March 2024 review highlighted areas for improvement, including income withdrawal strategies and advice suitability. Wesleyan’s poll revealed that 91% of advisers familiar with the review reassessed their practices, with 66% already implementing changes. Common adjustments included advice file record-keeping and client screening. Over three-quarters of advisers agreed the review heightened the focus on providing better retirement advice.

Can the UK’s bold gamble on capital market regulation steer it to success?
Proponents of the latest changes are betting that easing the hurdles for companies, even in ways investors dislike, will pay off
Team GB should be proud of its haul of 65 medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics – more than any country besides China and the US.
However, with 14 of those 65 medals being gold, GB may well feel like it took the runner-up prizes a few more times than it would have liked.
Unfortunately, there are parallels here with the British capital markets, currently lamenting a dearth of new and exciting IPOs – a field in which we’re also trailing the US.
It is widely agreed radical changes are needed. That’s just what is happening. Yet still not everyone is excited.
New proposals in July to amend rules governing disclosures and investor access to capital raisings were announced as part of the government’s ongoing plans to rehydrate the country’s capital markets.
The key proposal, if enacted, would eliminate the need for companies to issue a new prospectus in most circumstances other than for initial listings on public markets. The proposals also outline measures to increase retail participation in both public and private market investments.
These proposals are intended to complement the recently introduced UK Listing Rules, which came into effect last month. The rules aim to remove the barriers on the road to UK investment recovery by relaxing restrictions on dual class share structures, which allow managers and founders to exercise control over companies in which they may only hold a minority stake.
They also remove requirements to seek shareholder approval for a number of significant corporate transactions, or those with related parties.
Pedalling ahead
Although measures to encourage a broader base of investment are a largely welcome boost to UK companies in need of an edge, several of these moves are perceived to come at the expense of investor protections valued by UK shareholders.
On balance, this proposed regulation looks like a bold gamble, which hinges on the idea the UK can build a more competitive capital market by streamlining the requirements for listed companies, even if that means introducing features their investors largely dislike.
Pushing forward market features that many of the largest investors oppose will require a careful eye on the detail if we are to attain the leading capital market everyone seeks.
Whether reducing investor protections and required disclosures is the right route to go down will depend on the UK’s ability to attract high-performing and well-governed companies. Any perception that the new rules represent a race to the bottom – in which investors place their capital in lower quality businesses, subject to weaker transparency and greater management control – will need to be fought against.
Overall, while not everyone is happy with the changes, investors and companies appear to have accepted the current regulatory direction of travel is not about to alter, having just been confirmed as one of the first acts of the new Labour government.
So, the strategy has been set and the big call has been made. Let’s hope that when the figurative tyres are changed, it turns out to be a stroke of genius which puts UK companies on a winning streak rather than setting up investors for a fall.

IHT receipts continue to rise as speculation mounts ahead of Budget
The Treasury collected £3.5bn in inheritance tax receipts between April to August, latest figures from HMRC published this morning (20 September).
This is £300m higher than the same period last year.
Another record-breaking year for IHT receipts is being predicted and experts believe this upward trajectory will continue year on year and hit £9.7bn in 2028/29.
However, there are rumours that IHT will be increased next month when the new Labour government unveils its first Budget.
The current £325,000 nil rate band has been at that level since 2009.
The residential nil rate band was introduced on a phased basis between 2017 and 2020 and potentially gives an additional £175,000 nil rate band (making a total of £500,000) subject to certain rules.
Nucleus technical services director Andrew Tully, said: “The ever-increasing IHT tax take may give the government food for thought as we approach next month’s Budget.
“Changes could be made such as scrapping or updating the rules on agricultural land and business relief.
“Currently, a person can claim up to 100% relief on the inheritance of agricultural land if it is being actively farmed.
“This could be reduced, or certain limitations placed on the maximum value of the relief.
“There could be a tightening of qualifying criteria for business relief, perhaps relating to unlisted shares and AIM portfolios.
“Although that could be difficult to implement and may not tie in with the desire to increase investment in the UK.”
Shaun Moore, tax and financial planning expert at Quilter, is calling for the IHT system to be simplified to make it easier for people to gift during their lifetime.
He said: “The complexity of the current system often leads to confusion and inequities.
“A simpler system could help reduce the administrative burden for both taxpayers and HMRC, while also making it fairer.
“Similarly, increasing the gifting threshold would encourage earlier wealth transfer, reducing future IHT liabilities, and could boost consumer spending.”
The number of families being caught out by tax bills after death on gifts made in lifetime has been surging, according to figures from HMRC obtained recently by wealth management firm Evelyn Partners show.
Tax Partner at professional services and wealth management firm Evelyn, Laura Hayward, said: “The number of estates that paid IHT on gifts made less than seven years before death more than doubled from 590 in 2011/12 to 1,300 in 2020/21, according to the data.
“Meanwhile, the total sum of IHT paid on gifts also more than doubled from £101m in 2011/12 to £256m in 2020/21 – an increase of 153% in monetary terms and 119% in real terms.
“The data suggests the average tax charge payable by beneficiaries on lifetime gifts was £171,186 in 2011/12 and £196,923 in 2020/21.
“That suggests some very significant tax bills are being delivered to unprepared beneficiaries after their generous relative has died, and this might be another reason for those contemplating making big lifetime gifts to start the seven-year clock ticking sooner rather than later.
“Even if the gifter were to pass away within seven years, there is a chance the IHT bill could be reduced by taper relief.”

The Financial Conduct Authority has launched an investigation into pure protection and it’s safe to say it’s pretty damning, writes Andrew Gething, managing director at MorganAsh.
Not only is the regulator ordering insurers and intermediaries to remove products that do not offer fair value, it’s weighing up action to address these issues, as well as not demonstrating good customer outcomes.
It’s a stark reminder of the regulator’s intent to enforce the Consumer Duty, which is now in full force. In fact, the FCA highlighted its commitment to engage with both GI and protection, as well as relevant trade bodies, to ensure its expectations are recognised and acted upon urgently.
A key shortcoming identified by the regulator was an inability by firms to demonstrate how they assess whether a product delivers fair value to all customers, including vulnerable or outlier groups.
