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

Requiring competent advice about my savings that were just sat in a cash ISA etc, but required long-term investment plans. Additionally, to look at my pension pot with a previous employer and help me look at my alternative options, before deciding what best suited my needs.

How has Tom Olsak helped you?

He has helped us, as a couple, invest our money and plan appropriately for our future financial security. He has explained the pros and cons of investment, outlining the risks as well as the potential reward, to help us to understand the choices available. We feel confident that he has our best interests at the centre of all that he and the company do. He is very professional and he has our full trust that he is reliable and trustworthy. He is quick to respond to emails and answers any questions/queries clearly and knowledgeably, and is thorough in his explanations.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

We understand markets go up as well as down, and at the moment we are experiencing volativity with world events etc. However, one aim was to try to ensure our savings maintained their value and didn't become worth less, over time and/or as inflation increased etc. They have done this so far, we believe. So, we remain pleased with our decisions.

What could they have done better?

Nothing that I can think of....we know if we need to contact Tom in-between our face-to-face annual meeting, that an email to him is always promptly responded to. You can't ask for better than this.

It’s always a privilege to work alongside clients who are taking positive steps towards organising their long-term financial wellbeing.
