What are your charges?

We rebate all up front commissions on investment products, and charge a fee for the advice we provide. This means that our clients can save significant amounts compared to other advisers or investing directly with a fund manager. Our current fee schedule is contained in our Practice Guide. We always advise our clients what fees will apply for their advice before we commence any work.

Will you tell me about any risks of the investments or investment strategies you recommend to me?

We will explain to you any significant risks of investments and strategies that we recommend to you, which shall be provided in writing along with any written advice. We will provide detailed information about our fees with your written advice.

Will you give me advice that is suitable to my investment and financial circumstances?

We are focused on providing personalised financial planning advice. That is, advice personalised to your particular financial circumstances and needs. To deliver such personalised advice, we need to find out your current financial situation and clarify your future objectives. You have the right to withhold private information from us, but this may compromise the effectiveness of your financial plan. In that case, we are required to warn you about the possible consequences of us not having your full personal information. While general advice can be provided, the best results are achieved when the financial plan is tailored to meet your specific needs and objectives.
