Needed financial advisor following death of my father

How has Jonathan Bissett helped you?

My mother and I searched locally for an advisor after my father died. Going on local recommendations and trusted online reviews we found Jonathan. We instantly trusted this young gentleman who is polite friendly and professional without the sales-rep smarminess often found in his profession. He explained we had my mother's money in one high risk account and that we should spread it for safety. Everything he has done has reassured us that we are in good hands. All of the investments are financial authority protected so we are not worried about being scammed. We shall certainly be happy to write another review a year down the line and are happy in a our dealings with this very likeable young gentleman.

Yes - portfolio set up
