ARE YOU ENJOYING
THE RIDE?
The residents of Crockham Hill have been
treated to a newly surfaced road from the top
of the hill all the way to Edenbridge. Sadly, the
financial markets have not proved so smooth
recently and especially thus far during 2022.
The opening up of the economy, after COVID19 restrictions were lifted, gave rise to supply
chains being stretched and the departure of
our European workers post Brexit left many
posts unfilled, particularly in hospitality. All of
this led to a resurgence of inflation. Putin’s
invasion of Ukraine has seen the price of oil rise
by 30% and commodities and food soon
followed. Central banks are responding by
putting up interest rates and many pundits
think this could give rise to a recession before
too long.
We specialise in helping pass assets down through
the generations in a tax efficient manner,
consolidating and investing pensions and other
wrappers such as ISAs, as well as directly invested
portfolios.
At The Investment Boutique we help our clients
navigate these difficult times by designing
bespoke investment plans to meet their
individual needs.
As keen philanthropists we have supported many
local charities. A recent gift was Holy Trinity Church
in its attempt to raise funds for heaters and
sponsorship of the Limpsfield Chart Cricket Club.
Whilst we are lucky enough to already have a
number of clients in Crockham Hill, we still have
room for many more. If you have any concerns
about how your investments are being managed,
why not make an appointment to meet one of our
team. You can find us opposite Waitrose on Station
Road East in Oxted - Richard Arris, Helena
Bakunowicz and the team.
