I have worked in the financial service industry since 2002, gaining experience with a large global institution before setting up my own firm. I am passionate about what I do. Whether this is finding a suitable home for savings, investments, and pensions, protecting the value of your home and assets with estate planning, or contingency in case of a change of circumstances, such as ill-health or a death in the family. My company is independent, meaning I can access the entire marketplace of products and providers, to research and find the best fit for you. This may mean low-cost options, specialist investments, those with guarantees for growth and capital security to name but a few. The key to successful financial planning is to consider your expectations, wishes, and aspirations in the immediate future, medium-term and for the rest of your life. Following an appraisal of your current arrangements, I will consider where you are now, and suitable actions to put you on track to meet your goals. Recommendations are presented clearly and simply, including all the information you need to make an informed decision. Easy administration and hassle-free management are all part of the service. Please get in touch to find out more about how I can help you. An initial chat is always without cost or obligation. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions and find out more about me, and the service I can offer you now and in the future.
