About this Episode

Britain has a new Prime Minister, but many of the tax changes being discussed remain speculation rather than confirmed policy.

In this Weekly Market Update, we separate political headlines from financial reality and examine the developments most relevant to expatriates, retirees and internationally mobile families.

Topics include the UK’s new government and the approaching Inheritance Tax changes affecting pensions, continued disruption around the Strait of Hormuz, interest rates and currency movements, Belgium’s new Capital Gains Tax rules, QROPS risks for US-connected pension holders, and the changing role of bonds, cash and private credit in retirement portfolios.

Information and market data were correct as of 27 July 2026 and may have changed since recording.
