About this Episode

In this week's Expat Money Matters – Weekly Market Update, we look at the Federal Reserve's more hawkish message from Jackson Hole and what changing US interest-rate expectations could mean for the dollar, bonds and cross-border income.

We also cover the Bank of Canada's upcoming rate decision and escalating US–Canada trade tensions, Belgium's newly passed capital gains tax deadline, and renewed disruption around the Strait of Hormuz.

For those with financial connections to southern Europe, we explain the upcoming Modelo 210 reporting changes for non-resident property owners in Spain and the transition to Malta's new Individual Tax Programme from January 2027.

Finally, HMRC has published further technical detail on the major change coming from 6 April 2027, when most unused UK pension funds and certain pension death benefits will be brought within the value of an estate for UK Inheritance Tax purposes.

If any of these developments could affect your pensions, investments, property, estate planning or plans to move abroad, you can book a complimentary, no-obligation meeting with a qualified Chase Buchanan adviser at: chasebuchanan.com/book
