Why the New Tax Year Matters
Each new tax year brings fresh opportunities to make the most of tax allowances and exemptions before they expire.
For example:
- Personal Allowance: Reviewing income levels to ensure you’re within the optimal tax bands.
- ISA Allowances: Maximising your annual contribution limit to shield savings and investments from tax.
- Pension Contributions: Leveraging the generous tax relief on contributions to boost retirement savings.
Understanding these options can be complex, but the benefits are worth the effort. A little forward planning with the help of ourselves at Howard Wright, can result in significant financial gains in the long run.
Key Financial Planning Strategies for Codsall Residents
- Maximise Tax-Efficient Savings: Make the most of your annual Individual Savings Account (ISA) allowance. Whether it’s a Cash ISA for security or a Stocks and Shares ISA for growth potential, the right approach depends on your personal financial goals and risk tolerance.
- Boost Pension Contributions: Take advantage of pension tax relief before the tax year ends. Residents in higher tax brackets can benefit significantly from topping up their pensions, but this requires careful planning to avoid breaching annual or lifetime allowances.
- Use Capital Gains Tax Allowances Wisely: If you’re investing or selling assets, the annual capital gains tax (CGT) allowance offers an excellent opportunity to reduce tax liabilities. Our Advisers based in Codsall can help you structure disposals strategically to maximise savings.
- Plan for Inheritance Tax: The new tax year is a good time to reassess estate planning. Gifting strategies, trust arrangements can help you pass on more of your wealth to loved ones.
- Consider Family Financial Planning: Family finances often have untapped potential. Junior ISAs, spousal contributions, and intergenerational wealth transfer strategies are just a few ways to make the most of available allowances.

Real-Life Success Stories
My wife and I have worked with Howard Wright for the past 20 years and they have provided us with sound financial advice throughout that period. In the early days, they helped us through a difficult period in our lives and have always acted efficiently, professionally and with our best interests at heart. They always presented us with all the available options whilst offering guidance and recommendations. Most recently they have provided me with excellent advice with regards to my pension and are currently sourcing a second mortgage for us. It has been a first-class, friendly and personal relationship based on their full understanding of our situation and needs and our total trust in them. I would highly recommend them to anyone for sound and practical financial advice.
