The Chancellor has set 22 June as the date of his emergency Budget. We are tracking the changes in our Advisers' Finance Bill planner (see below).

There are several exciting new guides and updates this week. Remember every guide counts as direct reseach and qualifies you for CPD points. We are focusing on our director and adviser guides in current weeks.

Enjoy

All the best
