How we
add value
Our investment philosophy emphasises quality and diversification alongside face-to-face independent financial advice. We choose appropriate investments linked to your attitude to risk, to achieve the return required to meet your financial objectives. Our advisers add value by selecting investments from the entire market, including active, passive, and sustainable investment solutions.
Financial Planning Consultation
We offer all prospective customers a free no obligation initial one-hour financial planning consultation. At the meeting we discuss your requirements, our advice and investment process and explain our customer fees. We act as the impartial, informed buyer for our customers. Complete our booking form or contact us for more information.
Transparent Charging
Our financial advisers agree a fixed upfront fee on a case-by-case basis dependent on the financial advice required. We deliver financial solutions solely created to match your specific needs. This enables us to deliver financial solutions in a professional and cost-effective manner. We also offer a choice of services and fees for ongoing advice.
Working with
professional intermediaries
We often work with your solicitor and accountant, or we can introduce you to other local professionals. Working with professional intermediaries provides you with joined up legal, tax and financial advice.
Vulnerable
Customers
We aim to identify and assist customers and prospective customers who may be considered as living in vulnerable circumstances, by virtue of their age, disability, or other circumstances. In 2021 Lonsdale Services won the Best Adviser firm for Vulnerable Client Care at the 2021 National Professional Adviser Awards.
