de Carteret Wealth

Old job. Old pension. Forgotten pot.

Most people pick up pensions like souvenirs, one from every workplace, quietly sitting there, half-remembered.

But scattered pensions cost you twice: in fees you can’t see, and in growth you never track.

Three simple steps change that:

1️⃣ Find it - track down what old jobs left behind

2️⃣ Check it - small fees quietly erode big returns

3️⃣ Plan it - one honest target for the life you actually want

Your first pension review is on us. No jargon, no pressure, just clarity on what you’ve built and where it’s going.

Your money. Your decisions. Your future.

Too often, women are left out of the financial conversation, or brought in only after the big decisions are made.

We’re changing that.

At de Carteret Wealth, we believe financial confidence isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about having the clarity to see your options, the guidance to weigh them, and the confidence to choose what’s right for you.

Your goals. Your values. Your timeline. We’re here to make sure you have everything you need to take control, and keep it.

Ready to make your money work on your terms?

Financial advice shouldn’t require a translation matrix.

If your adviser is talking to you about "optimising decumulation via phased drawdown strategies across consolidated DC arrangements," what they actually mean is: Let’s make sure your retirement income lasts as long as you do.

At de Carteret Wealth, we believe clarity is a prerequisite for trust. You shouldn't have to decode your own financial plan.

We promise plain answers, clear strategies, and jargon-free conversations from day one.

The countdown to retirement isn’t just a waiting game, it’s your most critical planning window.

The 10 years leading up to your ideal retirement date are where the magic happens.

It’s the "runway" that determines how smoothly your transition will launch.
If you are within a decade of stepping back from full-time work, here are 3 non-negotiable steps to take right now:

1. Get your real number. A vague estimate won't cut it anymore. You need to calculate the actual, year-by-year cost of the lifestyle you envision.

2. Close the gap early. Small, strategic adjustments today will always beat massive, painful sacrifices later. Maximising your runway means letting time do the heavy lifting.

3. Define what "retired" means to you.
Are you looking at a full stop, a gradual wind-down, or a shift to a "work-optional" passion project? Your financial plan must match your personal dream.

Don't leave the next chapter of your life to chance.

Start your runway today.

When did you last actually look at your pension?

Not just glance at a statement and file it away, really look at whether it's still working for you.

For most people, the answer is "longer than I'd like to admit." And that's completely understandable. Pensions are easy to set up and forget. But the plans you opened years ago were built around the life you had then, not the one you're heading toward now.

A quick review can tell you three important things:

Is it still on track for the life you actually want?

Are you paying more in charges than you need to?

Could your old, scattered plans be working harder together?

Small differences in fees and fund performance compound over decades, which means the cost of not checking is often far greater than people realise.

The good news: it doesn't cost anything to find out where you stand.

You insure the things you can replace. The one thing you can’t, your ability to earn, usually goes unprotected.

Your income is the engine behind everything: the mortgage, the school fees, the life you’ve built. Yet most of us protect the car on the drive before the salary that paid for it.

Income protection isn’t about expecting the worst. It’s about making sure that if life takes an unexpected turn, the people who depend on you don’t have to feel it.

Financial freedom rarely comes down to luck or a single big windfall. More often it's the result of a clear, deliberate plan - one built around your life, your goals, and the future you actually want.

Taking control means having money that works for you, the confidence to make decisions without second-guessing yourself, and a future shaped on your terms, not anyone else's.

Whether you're building wealth, navigating a change in circumstances, or simply want clarity on where you stand, the right plan puts the power back in your hands.
