What clients say:
‘I run a growing family business in Bourne-End. I was looking for both business and financial advice but wasn’t sure how to approach this. A friend recommended Alex to me and I followed that up. Alex now comes to our office one day a month and has assisted us on a broad range of issues, from key person cover to setting up our company pension scheme in line with the auto-enrolment regulations.

‘I recently retired as a consultant of 40 years from the NHS to pursue my private practice and needed assistance with this change. Despite being comfortable financially I had never sought proper financial advice before working with Alexander. I have been pleasantly surprised as he is doing an excellent job for me. One of the things that works for me about Alex is that although knowledgeable about his subject he keeps it simple and doesn’t baffle you with financial jargon.’
