Nathan J Andrews (Senior Wealth Manager) - Regular exhibitor at A Place in the Sun LIVE
Speciality Advice was founded with the goal of facilitating access to beneficial financial advice and solutions, including pension transfers, for Irish & UK expatriates, and worldwide individuals.
Originally from Wales, having graduated from London University, Nathan worked in the UK financial services until 2009 when he moved offshore to specialise in assisting professional, and retired, expatriates. He is a member of the UK Personal Finance Society, Institute of Chartered Insurers, and holds qualifications under The London Institute of Banking and Finance.
As an expat himself, Nathan is fully aware of, and understands, the financial needs and requirements of expats. He recognises the advantages that expatriate status can bring, but also the need for qualified sound advice in order to ensure that one’s assets are properly arranged and effectively managed in the most secure, profitable and tax efficient ways.
Nathan is a senior wealth manager with extensive experience in advising clientele, and also an approved representative with award-winning consultancies and advisory network across the EU, advising clients across Spain, Portugal, Greece, France and Switzerland, specialising in both Irish and UK pension advice for expatriates.
Questions those moving abroad often ask:
Having decided to pursue one's dream of retiring abroad, and purchased the right Portuguese property, experience of working with expatriate clients over the years has highlighted the next clear objective as typically being that of Financial planning. Indeed, people will often ask themselves:
What happens to my UK, or Irish, pensions when I am living in Portugal?
Where do I pay tax on my pensions?
What are the consequences of perhaps having purchased an ARF, or an annuity?
Is my UK, or Irish, right to an initial tax-free lump sum also considered tax-free in Portugal?
What is a Double Taxation Agreement, and do I qualify, or do I face double taxation between my home country and Portugal?
Are there advantageous options for my pensions, and if so, what?
What is a QROPS, and is it right for me, what is the 25% Overseas Transfer Charge?
I already have an existing financial adviser, can they continue to advise me once I have moved abroad?
I have cash, and savings, how will these be treated for tax in Portugal?
Is my estate still subject to Inheritance Tax?
We believe that prior to any financial decision making, one should feel confident they are able to make an informed decision on how best, or indeed not, to proceed.

Nathan Andrews did a great job in assisting me with my Defined Benefit pension transfer. It was a very important decision for us in considering the best option. Nathan guided us through the process, he has also provided genuine continuity of service, and the new pension fund has performed well above our expectations. 5 Star all the way.
My wife and I had been planning retirement in Spain for some time. Financial and pension matters were a great concern as these were central for planning our future. I made enquiries with a number of financial advisors, and chose Nathan, because of his knowledge and personal touch ... Nathan's information, advice and working was of a very professional and personal standard. He provided appropriate advice and information, guiding me through the stages and was quick to respond to any queries. His overall approach and help with problems built my confidence through the process. It felt very much like a personal service. I am very happy to have met Nathan and would recommend his services.
A very smooth, patient and well supported transfer of my pension. Support from Nathan Andrews, who has been helping me for the past 4 years, much appreciated.
