What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I was without a financial adviser for a few years and my investments needed updating.

How has Paul Drake helped you?

He has invested the money in the appropriate investment funds.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

As with any investments they go up and down and when I need to draw on this money, I hope the market will be going in the right direction. At present everything seems to be going in the right direction.

What could they have done better?

I have no complaints.
