Investments
Article Abstract:
The UK sports sector is the subject of a lot of investment and commercialisation. Premier League soccer clubs have seen their shares rise as a result of finance from BSkyB, sponsors are being sought to pay for wages and transfer fees, and rugby football has turned professional. Manchester United plans to launch a brand of whisky, and Glasgow Celtic has its own personal equity plans. Breweries might add their names to the list of those who wish to be associated with sport.

Investments
Article Abstract:
Political developments in the UK, especially the fact that an election will take place in the relatively near future, are inevitably having an impact on financial markets. Company share prices, especially those of water, electricity and energy concerns, are set to become quite vulnerable, but there will be little effect on other privatised concerns. Markets will probably fluctuate until analysts have a clear idea of the competency of a new government.

Don't wait for the gold watch
Article Abstract:
It is worth making financial preparations for retirement as soon as possible, because many people now do not work until the full retirement age. Careful checks should be made of any company pension plan, and it may be thought advisable to make additional voluntary contributions. Annual contribution limits should be used to the full. Upon retirement, it may be worth delaying taking all or part of the pension.
