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

Mike has been our financial advisor for 28 years, and we originally asked for mortgage advice.

How has Mike Osmond helped you?

Mike has been our financial advisor for 28years, and has always given us sound mortgage, investment, and general financial advice. He has seen us through financing our house, school fees and an extension over the years, as well as making sure we have the insurance cover we needed for financial security. He now manages some investments for us. He has always given us advice based on the best thing for us, and left the choices to us to decide, even though sometimes these weren’t the most rewarding for him. He has also given advice to most of our family and friends ! I can’t recommend Mike highly enough.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

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

The need to plan for the future and to manage various aspects of my financial investments on an ongoing basis in regard to constantly changing taxes, markets and financial rules.

How has Mike Osmond helped you?

Mike has been an invaluable asset over many decades now giving me sound advice on every aspect of finance from Mortgages, Insurances, Endowments through to Pension Planning and Inheritance Taxes and ultimately my family’s financial protection after I pass on.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Very much so, I can honestly say that in all the years that Mike has advised me everything that he has advised me on has proven to be sound and has always had the desired outcome.

What could they have done better?

I don’t think that anything could have been done better. Mike has worked along side me as a financial advisor and friend for so many years now, tweaking my finances where necessary without making too many radical decisions that could have led to instability at volatile times.

Mike:

Thank you so much for your kind words and continued trust over the years. It’s been a real privilege to support you through so many different stages of life and financial planning. I’ve always believed that good advice should be steady, thoughtful, and tailored to each individual’s circumstances – especially during times of market uncertainty – so I’m really pleased to hear that this approach has given you confidence and stability. Helping you plan not just for your own future, but for your family’s financial security too, has been an important part of our journey together. I genuinely value the relationship we’ve built and look forward to continuing to support you and your family in the years ahead.
