What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?
Long term planning over 15 years ago
How has Steven Rowe helped you?
Over the past 15 years Steve has always given me appropriate advice and support as life presents its twists and turns. For me, trust is a big issue, I am cautious and believe in managing risk for the things that matter. Steve has always been able to explain the rational to his advice, helping me to make clear informed decisions financially for me and my family for the future. My pension planning and decision dates are now zooming up on me! Steve is helping my look at my options reducing anxiety helping me build my mindset for the future and next phase of my life. It looks good, his bonkers humour can only help !!!!
Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?
I can't blame Steve for the recent market events, but generally performance results have been good for my investments, so yes Steve has achieved, but there is always room for more growth ; )
What could they have done better?
Very satisfied!
Steven:
