Mr Bailey, London
My adviser weighed up my needs and lifestyle very thoroughly and efficiently and was constantly upbeat despite my having only quite modest means. She was right on target with ideas and showed an excellent understanding of my situation, allying this to an upbeat and friendly attitude which inspired confidence and assurance.

Mr Hewland, London
It was my accountant who recommended SFIA to help me organise my pension. My adviser has been very helpful in describing – using layman’s terms – the various options and pension products available and scheduling yearly catch-up meetings to review pension performance and changes to the fund.

Jackie, Surrey
Faced with the almost impossible task of financial public school fees for our two bouts, we contacted SFIA. The level of service was frankly outstanding. Their adviser called at a time to suit us (8pm), took all our details and went away to come up with a financial plan. As a result we can not only afford the school fees but can keep our holidays too. Life for us will almost remain the same. Truly amazing. Our sincere thanks to all the team!
