As we approach the halfway point of what has been a volatile year thus far, we wanted to remind you of the importance of reviewing the holdings within your investment portfolio. With market conditions and economic factors constantly changing, it is crucial to ensure that your portfolio remains aligned with your investment goals and risk tolerance.

There are several reasons why now is an excellent time to review your portfolio:

Market Volatility: In recent months, we have seen significant market volatility caused by a variety of factors, including inflation concerns, geopolitical tensions, and supply chain disruptions. These market fluctuations can affect the performance of your portfolio, making it essential to review your holdings regularly.

Changing Life Circumstances: Your investment goals and risk tolerance may change over time, depending on your life circumstances. For example, you may want to adjust your portfolio to prioritise income generation over growth if you are approaching retirement. Or, if you have experienced a significant life event, such as a marriage, divorce, or birth of a child, you may need to revise your investment strategy.

Tax Considerations: With the new tax year having just begun, now is an excellent time to review your portfolio from a tax perspective. You may want to consider tax-efficient investment options or review any capital gains or losses to optimize your tax position.
