I am an Independent Financial Adviser based in Kempston, Bedfordshire and the founder of Clear Vision Financial Planning. I passionately believe that people who need financial advice should be able to receive it from advisers who are knowledgeable and experienced. I am therefore proud to be both a Chartered Financial Planner and a Certified Financial Planner. I also believe that advisers should specialise in dealing with certain types of people. This means they have the in-depth knowledge required to solve their client’s financial problems and help to plan their future. I therefore work most effectively with people who are: • Approaching retirement and starting to think about the next stage of their life • Business owners who need to connect their corporate and personal finances together • Solicitors who need help planning their financial future There are several key reasons our clients choose to work with us: • Planning: I am a financial planner. That means I focus on you, before your money, and ensure that we think strategically, putting a plan in place to ensure you achieve your objectives. • Independent: The financial plan we create for you will often mean the use of financial products (pensions, ISAs and so on) that’s where our independent status really benefits our clients, allowing us to select from the whole of the market. • Highly qualified: I am both a Chartered Financial Planner and a Certified Financial Planner, my clients get the benefit of that knowledge and my experience • Local: We work from a fabulous barn conversion in Kempston where we meet most of our clients. We find that the rural location is perfect for ensuring our client meetings are relaxed and focused on you and your needs. The plentiful free parking helps too! • Specialist: We only work with certain types of people that means we have a deep understating of the issues and solutions faced by our clients If you would like to understand more about how financial planning can help solve your current financial concerns, as well as improve your future, please get in touch. I’d be delighted to hear from you.
