Weekly Market Update 24/06/2026

<p>In this Weekly Market Update, we review a fast-moving week for politics, markets, and cross-border wealth planning.</p> <p>The episode covers the orderly UK leadership transition following Sir Keir Starmer’s resignation, the market impact of easing geopolitical tensions and lower energy prices, and the continued volatility following the historic SpaceX IPO.</p> <p>We also look at several important planning issues for internationally mobile families, including UK pension changes for British expatriates in the United States, the approaching year-11 challenge for Portugal’s Non-Habitual Resident regime, and Malta’s increasingly attractive tax framework for retirees and globally mobile professionals.</p> <p>The key message this week is simple: for expatriates, successful wealth management is not about reacting to every headline, but about understanding the direction of travel and planning before deadlines force decisions.</p>

Weekly Market Update 17/06/2026

<p>In this Weekly Market Update, we review a week of market recovery following the sell-off on Friday 5 June, with investors responding to hopes of a US-Iran agreement, lower oil prices and the largest IPO in history.</p> <p>We explore why the SpaceX listing raises broader questions about concentration risk in passive investment portfolios, particularly for expatriates whose retirement savings may be heavily exposed to a small number of US technology names.</p> <p>The episode also looks at the growing divergence between major central banks, with the European Central Bank tightening, the Federal Reserve expected to hold, and the Bank of England facing weak UK growth alongside persistent inflation pressures.</p> <p>For cross-border families, this creates important questions around currency exposure, pension income, euro cash returns and sterling-based retirement planning.</p> <p>We also examine the latest tax developments across Europe, including changes affecting QROPS transfers, Portugal’s post-NHR landscape, Malta’s pension tax incentives, Cyprus tax reforms, France’s treaty advantages for US-connected clients, and Belgium’s expanded inbound regime.</p> <p>The key message is clear: in a world shaped by security concerns, inflation control and tax reform, cross-border wealth planning can no longer rely on legacy structures or set-and-forget portfolios. Coordination between residence, taxation and investment strategy matters more than ever.</p>

Weekly Market Update 10/06/2026

<p>In this week’s update, we examine both sides of the debate around the recent equity market rally. Strong fundamentals continue to support many of the market’s leading companies, but rich valuations, concentrated technology exposure, rising call option activity and bubble-like conditions in parts of the semiconductor sector are creating potential warning signs.</p> <p>We also look at the liquidity pressures that could affect markets, from cautious technology earnings guidance and major AI infrastructure spending to the record IPO pipeline. Alongside this, global macro pressures are building, with energy markets reacting to Middle East uncertainty, stronger-than-expected US employment data influencing monetary policy expectations, and the European Central Bank facing another important rate decision.</p> <p>For expatriates and globally mobile families, the episode focuses on the practical implications of these shifts. We discuss currency pressure for British expats, additional complexity for US Connected Persons, sector rotation in equity markets, and important cross-border fiscal updates, including Non-Resident Capital Gains Tax, the temporary non-residence trap, changes to pension top-ups and State Pension triple lock realities.</p> <p>The episode closes with a reminder that passive global trackers may leave investors heavily exposed to concentrated technology hubs, while active structural management can help navigate changing local and global rules.</p>
