Questions about Wealth Planning

What is the difference between Wealth Planning and Investment Management?

Wealth Planning involves building a relationship with our clients to completely understand their goals and objectives; their financial circumstances; and how they see their future unfold. This information gives us the ability to provide the best tools and a suite of services to a client, including pension planning, tax-efficient savings, and Investment Management.

Investment Management is the service of managing a portfolio of investments, for example, stocks, bonds, funds, private equity and commodities, aiming to achieve agreed goals such as capital growth. Investment Management is most effective when working as part of an overarching wealth plan.
