Living in the UK as an expat brings opportunities and challenges. From navigating tax rules to managing pensions across borders, your financial world is more complex than most. That’s why tailored advice matters.

At Harrison Brook, we offer straightforward, independent financial advice for expats in the UK. We help you make confident decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and plan for the future with clarity.

Understand Your Financial Landscape

As an expat, your financial situation spans borders. You might earn in one currency and spend in another. Your pension may sit overseas. And the UK’s tax and residency rules can be confusing if you’re not used to them.

We help you get a clear picture. Whether you’ve just arrived or lived here for years, we explain how UK rules affect your money and what steps you can take.

Our advice typically covers:

  1. Pensions – Have a UK or overseas pension? We help you weigh your options, from QROPS to SIPPs, and manage cross-border transfers.
  2. Currency management – Reduce risk from exchange rate fluctuations and get smart about managing income across currencies.
  3. Investments – Align your investment strategy to your expat lifestyle and long-term goals.
  4. Retirement planning – Plan for your future whether you stay in the UK or move elsewhere.

Every recommendation is tailored to you: never generic, always aligned with your goals and circumstances.

Independent, Transparent, and Experienced

We’re fully independent, we are not tied to any bank or provider. That means we only recommend what’s right for you. Our fees are always clear, with no hidden charges or back-door commissions. You’ll always know what you’re paying and why.

As a regulated and experienced advisory firm, we understand both UK regulations and international finance. Our advisers work with clients around the world. We stay up to date with changes in tax laws, pensions, and investment rules so you don’t have to.

Wherever you’re from, and wherever you’re headed, we’re here to make your money work smarter.

Advice That Moves With You

Your life might change. You may move countries again. You could shift careers or decide to retire earlier than planned. That’s why we focus on building long-term relationships, not one-off transactions.

We stay with you. As your circumstances evolve, we adapt your financial strategy. Your adviser remains accessible, informed, and focused on what matters to you.
