Managing director Thomas Skinner and paraplanner Emma Walker explain how annual allowance taper rules have generated substantial tax bills for consultants, and what the effect of that has been on the number of hours they work and their retirement planning.
Our conversation also takes other interesting turns as we explore how the crisis has prompted doctors to rethink their work life balance, what the logjam in Westminster means for finding solutions to the taper, and how holistic financial planning can put an entirely different perspective on the whole issue once medical clients have been through the process.
