Financial Advice FAQ

  • At what age should I consider a Financial Planner?

    At what age should I consider a Financial Planner?

    You don’t need to reach a certain age to benefit from Financial Planning. Many people speak to a Financial Planner when they start building savings, buy a home, change jobs, or begin thinking about retirement. Others reach out after a life event such as marriage, having children, divorce or receiving an inheritance. Whenever you want clarity about your financial future, guidance from a Financial Planner can help you make confident, informed decisions.

  • How much money do I need to benefit from Financial Planning?

    How much money do I need to benefit from Financial Planning?

    You don’t need a set amount of money to benefit from Financial Planning – what matters is having clarity around your goals and the right guidance to support them. The cost of Financial Advice will depend on the work involved and the assets we’re advising on. Fees may be fixed, based on a percentage of your assets, or charged according to the time required. We’ll always explain any costs upfront once we understand your needs, and no work will go ahead until you’re happy to proceed.

  • What can I expect in an initial consultation with a local Financial Adviser?

    What can I expect in an initial consultation with a local Financial Adviser?

    Your first meeting is an opportunity to talk openly about your goals, concerns and financial priorities. Your Financial Adviser will ask questions to understand your circumstances, explain where Financial Planning may help, and outline how the process works. There’s no obligation to proceed, the purpose of the conversation is simply to help you decide whether Financial Advice is right for you and what the next steps might look like.
