MAKE YOUR WILL PART OF YOUR PERSONAL INVENTORY

Aneesa Razack, chief executive of FNB Fiduciary, says the importance of having a valid will cannot be emphasised enough, and given the current environment we are in, updating or drafting your will should be a priority. She says your will should be finetuned on an ongoing basis to keep up with important milestones in your life, such as the birth of a child, getting married or divorced, purchasing a new home, starting a new business, or investing offshore. “We encourage consumers to start by drafting a simple will based on what you have. The first and most important step is to have a valid will that documents your current life stage.”
