The Chancellor Headlines — December 2018


By Chancellor

As we tick the last Christmas presents off our festive shopping lists and spend sleepless nights looking for trails from Santa’s sledge in the sky, this month’s headlines present the main article on ethical investing, confirmation of rises to employer contributions to pension plans and news of our office Christmas charity donation.

Pour yourself some mulled wine and warm up with our festive financial news.

 

Ethical investing

As more of us want to invest in funds that align with our values, socially responsible investing is on the rise.

So this month’s main article explains how ethical investing works in practice and how it performs in comparison to mainstream methods.

 

Employer pension contributions

Employers have been contacted by The Pensions Regulator recently to confirm that employer’s contributions to pension plans will be rising from 6 April 2019.

So if you’re an employer and aren’t prepared, now’s the time to implement plans.

Find out more about the increase in contributions here.

Chancellor contribution to Meningitis Now

Instead of spending a fortune on cards this Christmas (and having our tongues in tatters from envelope glue!) we’ve decided to donate £250 to the excellent charity Meningitis Now.

This is a cause that’s close to the hearts of many Chancellor employees, so we’re delighted to dig deep and contribute.

Read more about the work of Meningitis Now here.

 

By the time we deliver January’s headlines, we’ll be working through our New Year’s resolutions. Remember to contact us or call 01204 526846 to make 2019 as prosperous as possible.
