Information on IHT planning is what the Powwow paraplanner community want, and that’s what the Powwow is going to give you with the help of supporter, Octopus Investments. If helping clients plan better for inheritance tax is your thing, then this series of three online Howwows is essential viewing.

The Howwows are hosted by Powwow regular, Richard Allum and an Octopus Guru and if you can’t watch them live you can catch it on …well, catch up.

What with it being a Powwow Howwow, there are plenty of ways for you to get stuck in:

Powwows vs Howwows - what's the difference?

Here's the Powwow lingo.  Powwows are informal gatherings designed by paraplanners for paraplanners to exchange views, learn things, fix things and share things.

Got that? But there's more. Where Powwow gatherings are on a number of topics,  Howwows are for those times when we want to focus on ONE topic in particular and, in depth.

Sometimes we meet in person,  and sometimes we just like a good chinwag online.  Enter Howwows Online.
