HOW WE CAN WORK

Important decisions need expert advice. We’re financial freedom fighters

DIY INVESTING INVESTMENT ADVISORY PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED PORTFOLIOS
  • Over to You, You are in the driving seat. You can deal in investments through an online form and we simply execute your orders.
  • Where you take the lead For clients who are comfortable taking the lead, decisions are taken in partnership with an investment manager.
  • Where we lighten the load From the very bespoke constructions, or our managed portfolio strategies we have a choice of approaches, including different styles and managers.
  • Built for those who want to retain complete control of their investments.
  • Designed for those who would like to manage their own money, but appreciate the support of a professional investment adviser
  • A range of risk assessed options including:
  • We provide the technology and resources to support a DIY approach.
  • A dedicated adviser will be on hand to discuss market developments and your holdings.
  • Discretionary: Bespoke Portfolios, and Tailored Traditional multi-asset portfolios (from 200,000 GBP).
  • Access to a wide range of sectors, number of exchanges and thousands of funds.
  • Having made initial recommendations, these are then kept under ongoing review.
  • Individual equity/Passive/Absolute Return managed portfolio strategies (from 50,000 GBP).
  • Take advantage from pre-built ‘mini model’ portfolios to benefit from a given theme.
  • Before investing, your adviser will engage with you to thoroughly understand your circumstances and your aims.
  • Benefit from a rigorous suitability process to design an appropriate investment approach.
  • Invest within a range of tax wrappers including ISAs or simply in a General Investing Account.
  • Benefit from the insights of a longstanding asset management business, with professional fund managers and global reach.
  • Continuous monitoring means your investments remain matched to your investing objectives.
  • You remain fully in control of the decision making process at all times.
  • A range of styles to suit investing personalities and investing types.
  • PERSONALISED INVESTING:

    It's rightly so that investment profiling should target understanding your financial personality - your risk tolerance comfort level for example.

    PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS

  • We think it’s possible to go beyond a risk profiling exercise that ‘takes your temperature’ at a given point in time;

  • Investing preferences can change, and suitability assessment can be broader than reducing risk to just a number

  • Whilst assessing suitability is fundamental of any given proposition, we try to offer a range of investing styles and portfolios.
  • INVESTING STYLES


  • A goals based approach means that you may have more than one portfolio for more than one goal

  • A need for income generation is very different for monies that are being set aside for the next generation

  • Therefore, we offer a range of approaches that might refine further mapping a given portfolio to a given goal – a multi asset fund, a passive portfolio of ETFs, or even a share portfolio.
  • PORTFOLIO PREFERENCES


  • Therefore depending on your requirements, we can even combine different approaches, from different fund management companies, including our own.

  • The styles we can support include:

    - Multi asset funds
    - Traditional fund based portfolios
    - Individual equity portfolios
    - Passive ETF portfolio
    - Absolute return approaches
  • OUR PORTFOLIO STRATEGIES

    However, we think we can go further by matching either a goal or a personality to a style of investing too, and that's why we offer a breadth of investing approaches and portfolio constructions
