Welcome to the birthday edition of Pink Finance, where we introduce a number of changes to the way your gay finance magazine operates. We’re evolving to become the financial journal that you simply cannot be without.
With cutting edge advice on mortgage, insurance, pensions and investments, there’s something for everyone in the new Pink Finance. We will ensure that your money is in the safest place, and working hard to meet your needs.
Chris Morgan Editor
The Pink Finance Mission
We are committed to representing the gay community within the finance industry and consulting with governing bodies. Our role is to ensure that you are able to obtain Mortgages, Life Assurance, Pensions and Investments without the fear of discrimination.
Our mission is to make certain that the LGBT community is treated fairly by all the financial services providers. We believe that—regardless of a person’s sexuality, gender, creed, colour or health status—they should be treated with respect
10 Year Anniversary
Our sponsors, Compass and Pink Investment are entering their 10th year of offering independent financial advice, having spent a decade advising clients from the gay, lesbian and HIV communities.
There have been significant changes over the last decade; accordingly Compass and Pink Investment promise numerous surprises and innovations during this anniversary year. Watch this space for details of new products, press releases and events.
Income Protection
Income Protection (Permanent Health Insurance) is the most useful product in the financial services industry, because it guarantees the policy holder an income for life. If you’re unable to do your own kind of work due to sickness or accident, then you receive benefit as long as you need until pension age.
Once underwritten the insurer cannot alter the policy, no matter how many times you claim. Premiums and benefit are both index linked, insuring that your ‘sick pay’ keeps pace with what your earnings would have been. Can you afford to be without Income Protection?
Please phone Compass on 0800 783 8629 for more details.
Pink Investment Financial Planning Review
For both existing and new customers, Pink Investment now offers pension and investment review services. The review is offered as an hourly rate service, so you needn't’t buy any new financial products - though any commission from purchased products can be offset against any accrued fees.
During the last few months we have reviewed people’s existing pension plans, and calculated their pension gap. We’ve checked the expected future value of some endowment policies that are intended to repay a mortgage, and are monitoring the performance of an existing investment portfolio.
Please phone Pink Investment on 0800 783 8629 for more details.
Don’t forget that all of our latest finance columns are featured in the Pink Paper newspaper and on the Gay.com website every week.
