After the UK Budget – how to keep your overseas plans on track

The UK Budget on 26 November could be one of the most impactful ever, potentially rivalling the 2022 ‘mini-Budget’ that sent the pound to its lowest level ever against the dollar.

Any Budget can have that effect on currency markets, but this one holds extra risks for anyone buying property abroad or moving money overseas.

Tax rises are inevitable, but where will they land? There is speculation that those moving overseas may be targeted with an “exit tax”. There could be huge political implications for Rachel Reeves too, of breaking manifesto promises.

It all remains speculation until 26 November, but the day after on 27 November, Your Overseas Home will be hosting a special webinar where we analyse the effect on your exchange rate, plus the property and wealth implications too.

Join Trevor Charnley from Smart Currency Exchange and Christopher Nye from Your Overseas Home for a free 30-minute webinar explaining what it all means for overseas buyers and movers.

Discover how to protect your buying power, manage currency risk and stay a step ahead of political and economic shocks.

• Practical strategies for securing your exchange rate and transfers
