What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
Historically I’ve been passed from one advisor to another as changes in the market meant one group was taken over by another.
How has Chris Parker helped you?
He helped transferring a potential annuity pot into a more beneficial pension plan and sorted out more economical life insurance cover into my mid 70’s
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Quite definitely.
What could they have done better?
Last year I was critical of Chris in that I thought he could have been more supportive on the pension transfer that I was seeking. This year I would say that’s all water under the bridge. He responds quickly to enquiries and requests.

I don’t have expertise or interest in managing my savings etc. I needed advice to ensure my money was being efficiently managed to preserve and if possible grow the capital and provide income if needed,
How has Chris Parker helped you?
Chris has always been available to answer queries. We meet at least once a year when he reports on how investments etc are being handled and if necessary makes recommendations.
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
Everything appears to be going as well as can be expected.
What could they have done better?
No specific issues come to mind.
