Investment Trusts in Ireland - Podcast 198

Informed Decisions Independent Financial Planning &... ·

2020/11/02

Investment Trusts have been in vogue for a little while - in no small small part due to the tax treatment of any realised gains. Many investors are hell-bent on finding an option that might allow them to invest in a diversified and low-cost way, and try to invest via Capital Gains Tax regime as opposed to Exit Tax regime. Some believe Investment Trusts in Ireland allow you to do that, but like many things it's not as straight-forward as that! Hope it helps, Paddy.

Tax on Investments in Ireland - Podcast 196

2020/10/05

Tax on investments in Ireland is a doozy! There is a warning often quoted in investment articles that suggest "you shouldn't let the tax tail wag the investment dog". Based on a recent conversation I had with a prospective client and from many emails that I get from investors, it seems that people aren't even aware that there is a tail! This is an important part of investing and is a significant issue for many investors, so I made sure to allocate sufficient time to get to write a short piece to

What's Love Got To Do With It, Baby They suggested that we hate losing something about twice as much as we enjoy gaining something! Think about it - in all walks of life it holds water. Take 'love' for example. I remember vividly when I was unceremoniously dumped by my first girlfriend! I was about 15 at the time - and 'devastated' was not the word for how I felt! Despite my father telling me; 'Cheer up son, the next one is always better' (!!!!) I was inconsolable for a week or two. Did 'the next

2020/08/31

Actively Managed Funds under-perform Passive Index Funds in the majority of cases. Managed funds usually exist in order to beat the market. They generally don't succeed. This is not an opinion or a prediction, it is a fact which you will see full evidence of in a moment. I will start however by reminding you of another fact. Your behaviour as an investor will have potentially far more of an impact on your investment success than whether you are invested in actively managed funds or passive. By
