Wealth Management

An independent, bespoke, personal and professional service that combines financial planning, investment management and tax mitigating services.

 

Wealth Management Service

Our advice will always be determined by your needs and objectives. We are highly experienced in working with business owners, senior executives, professionals and retirees who will usually have investable assets (eg savings, shares, funds, ISAs, pension funds etc) of over £200,000. How we work with you from the initial meeting to the ongoing service, if it is required can be found on our process page.

Whilst the Wealth Management Service ensures a comprehensive initial and ongoing review of your financial planning and investment requirements we do offer specialist services that recognise the importance of certain life stage events (e.g retirement, legacy planning).

The areas of advice covered by the Wealth Management Service includes:

 

Protection

  • Are you and your family financially secure if you or your partner have an accident or suffer an illness that prevents you or your partner from working? What happens if you are not able to make financial decisions for yourself because of that illness?
  • Is your family financially secure in the event of your death?
  • For business owners and senior executives is the business secure in the event of incapacity or death? What about other shareholders and key persons in the business? What does the shareholder agreement and/or Articles of Association say about what happens to the business?

 

Investment

  • If you are currently saving for the future, are you on track to achieve your objective?
  • Can saving reduce your tax bill?
  • Are the investments suitable and in line with your appetite for risk and capacity for loss?
  • Can the assets be held in more suitable and tax efficient products?
  • Are you making the most of the tax efficient products promoted by Government to encourage saving?
  • Do your investments need to be kept in continual review by experienced professionals and would you like to have peace of mind by being kept up to date with their performance by way of regular updates? Contact us to find out.

The value of your investment can go down as well as up and you may not get back the full amount you invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Levels, bases of and reliefs from taxation may be subject to change and their value depends on the individual circumstances of the investor.
