Online event

  • Financial Planning

In this IIL financial services webinar, Graham Duffy looks at ways that care might be funded and specifically at how to 'cap' the cost and bring certainty to an uncertain situation.

The issue of social care has been debated for many years now, but there is still no resolution despite successive governments promising to deal with it. We are still waiting for confirmation of the so called 'cap' on care costs, the decision on which has been deferred until Autumn 2021. If a cap is introduced, it is important to understand how it will work in reality. The details of this process are covered in this session.

Graham Duffy also considers what can be done now to cap the cost and discusses why it is important that financial advisers are involved in the process for people that have to self-fund their care.

Learning objectives:

  • How any proposed cap on care costs will work in reality
  • The different ways that care can be funded
  • The suitability of the investment versus insuring options
