Maximising savings in uncertain times

Uncertain times can make managing your finances feel more challenging, but taking control of your savings is one of the best ways to secure your future. Whether you’re facing economic shifts, rising living costs or unexpected expenses, there are practical steps you can take to make the most of your money.

At Creative Pension Trust, we provide tools and resources to help you build financial resilience and get the most from your long term savings. Here’s how you can take charge of your financial future:

Start with a Financial Health Check

Understanding where your money is going is the first step towards smarter savings decisions. Review your income, expenses and existing savings to identify areas where you can cut back or save more. Creating a realistic budget that includes regular savings contributions can help you take control of your finances, even in challenging times.

If you’re already contributing to a workplace pension with Creative Pension Trust, make sure you’re taking full advantage of what’s available. Log in to the Creative Pension Trust Member Portal to track your contributions, explore investment options and manage your savings effectively.

Make the Most of Workplace Benefits

Your workplace pension is a valuable benefit that can help you save for the future. By contributing enough to maximise any matching contributions from your employer, you’re effectively boosting your retirement savings with additional support. Over time, this can significantly increase your financial security.

For members of the Creative Pension Trust, we offer information on how workplace pensions work and how to optimise your contributions. Visit the Member Help Centre to learn more about the benefits of saving through your pension.

Focus on Long-Term Goals

While it’s tempting to prioritise short-term needs during uncertain times, keeping your long-term goals in mind is essential. Even modest contributions to your pension or savings accounts can grow substantially over time, thanks to the power of compound growth.

Creative Pension Trust offers investment options to align with your goals. Explore these options through the Creative Pension Trust Member Portal to find funds that match your risk appetite and values.

Protect Your Savings

Uncertain times often bring an increase in financial scams. Protecting your savings should be a top priority. Be cautious of unsolicited offers, high-return investment schemes or anyone pressuring you to make quick financial decisions.

Creative Pension Trust is committed to safeguarding your funds. Our workplace pension scheme is built with robust security measures and we provide regular updates to help you stay informed.
