Simon has been my financial advisor for over 12 years now in regard to my pension account. During this time his management of both me and my account has been very thorough and professional. He has been very proactive in guiding me through the markets, always taking time to keep me regularly informed in all regards of my account. He encourages regular touch points and dialogue whilst welcoming any questions, of which he is quick to address. He also has a great deal of patience and has a great knack of explaining complex financial matters in a very practical and easy to understand manner. Aside from this he is a very friendly, polite, engaging individual and someone it’s a pleasure to catch up with whenever we chat. A solid guy and I do not hesitate to recommend him for his business acumen and the integrity he brings to the table in all matters concerning my financial investments.

Simon has been incredible to work with. He is incredibly knowledgeable in the investment field, specifically when it comes to helping expat teachers! He’s personable, easy to talk to, and great at explaining the intricacies of investing in different markets. I highly recommend Simon , whether you are a teacher or not…if you are an expat, Simon will be able to help you with any of your investment needs.
