Finance for Expats Webinars 

Living and working abroad can be a great experience and for many it is a time when they are at their peak earning power. Building your wealth to enjoy the things you value most in life for yourself and your family and to ensure you have a prosperous retirement is a priority for everyone.

However, many expats live and work in several different countries; they may plan to return home to their home country to continue their careers and ultimately retirement may be in the country or region where they have worked, back home or in some sunny low-cost country elsewhere. These all give rise to a range of cross-jurisdictional issues unique to the expat lifestyle.

Expat Network has held a webinar series, Finance For Expats, to bring together a range of specialists and experts to take you through the opportunities and issues that need to be addressed by people planning to or currently living and working abroad.

The programme of recorded webinars is set out below and you can register to view these by using the link below:
