When should I consider estate planning?

Most people do not start thinking seriously about estate planning until inheritance tax becomes a visible concern.

But in reality, the timing of estate planning is not really about age.

It is about responsibility, family and the growing complexity of wealth over time.

For some, a straightforward Will may be enough in the early years.

For others, particularly those building significant wealth, owning property or running successful businesses, the conversation often becomes more important much earlier than expected.

In this short video, Peter Ditchburn explains why estate planning is often easier, more flexible and more effective when conversations begin sooner rather than later.
