I’m an Independent Financial Adviser and Co-Managing Director of a directly authorised firm based in Aberdeen, recognised as one of the city’s Top Rated Firms by VouchedFor and backed by over 240 five-star client reviews. After almost a decade advising under a restricted model, I made the decision to go fully independent. Why? Because clients deserve more. More choice. More transparency. More value. And advice that’s built around their goals, not someone else’s product list. I work with individuals, families, and business owners who want to feel confident, in control, and supported - whether they’re planning for retirement, investing for the future, or navigating a major life change. Many of my clients have significant wealth and want a strategic partner who can help them make smart, long-term decisions with clarity and care. As one of only around 5,000 directly authorised firms in the UK, we’re proud to offer: ✅ Full market access ✅ Lower-cost, flexible investment solutions ✅ Transparent, client-first advice ✅ A relationship built on trust - not sales targets If you’re looking for advice that’s personal, professional, and truly independent, I’d love to hear from you. ? What clients say about me ⭐ “Martin took the time to understand what I wanted—not just financially, but personally. I trust him completely.” ⭐ “The move to independence has only made the service even better. Transparent, honest, and always in my best interest.” ⭐ “I’ve worked with Martin for years. He’s the first adviser I’ve met who actually listens and explains things clearly.” ⭐ “I moved from another adviser and the difference was night and day. I now feel in control of my financial future.” ?
