On retirement I needed advice on investing my pension lump sum

How has Emma Parla helped you?

I had hoped my nest egg would grow more sustantially

What could they have done better?

With my previous advisor I felt very disappointed with the lack of interaction and advice. I do appreciate that thingsvare pretty much static at the moment due to world events and which no-one could have foreseen, and in no way reflect my dealings with Emma
