March, 2024

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I had financial advice previously from other companies and individuals which was very poor. I was recommended to use Alex and he has been excellent in giving me advice and makes me feel confident that he is doing the best for me, given my circumstances and financial situation.

How has Alex Turco helped you?

He has given me very sound guidance with respect to investing sensibly, to provide a sound income in retirement and in utilising tax breaks and efficiencies to maximise my gain.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Outcomes are so impossible to predict, I would have liked greater growth from my investments and pension but we have had Brexit, Covid, cost of living crisis and more than one economic downturn that has meant smaller returns than I would have liked. However I seem to be in a fairly secure position now and hopefully will have sufficient income in retirement which is down to sensible investments.

What could they have done better?

I don’t know, given my experience I think they are one of the best and have my interests at the forefront.

What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

My husband died and I needed help to sort out the money he d left me.

How has Alex Turco helped you?

Yes he came to see me at my home and because he already was my sisters financial advisor I knew he d be reliable .

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes. I know nothing about investing money and he has helped me and I trust his advise. I still have money, left to my own devices, I m sure it would be gone.

What could they have done better?

Not in my opinion, they are a family run business, so not a faceless organisation, I see Alex on his yearly visits, and speak to him on the phone when I need to.
