TRUE WEALTH MANAGEMENT

Pioneer Financial Advisory Ltd was founded on the basis of one overarching principle.

We believe that High Net Worth individuals and families should expect more from their Wealth Management firm than a pre-occupation with their investment funds. That is why we provide True Wealth Management.
It is an all-encompassing approach, managing your future life ambitions and incorporating your key relationships.

OUR STORY

Principal Partner and Chartered Financial Planner James Corden established Pioneer Financial Advisory Ltd in 2003. Disillusioned with what he saw as standard practice within the industry, he felt there was a different way to offer expert advice. He believed that building close relationships with a small number of clients and understanding their motivations, anxieties and future plans should be the priority. That insight would then be central to the Wealth Management advice and services he would recommend.

Within a year he was joined by Chartered Financial Planner and co-Director Kurt Francis who endorsed his beliefs. Today the firm has grown with the number of full time staff approaching 20. The team includes Wealth Manager , Chartered Financial Planner plus technical and investment specialists as well as dedicated Relationship Managers.

The Directors champion the delivery of exemplary client service, Continuous Professional Development and how we live our PRACTI>CL Core Values within the firm.


TRUE WEALTH MANAGEMENT

We believe the term ‘wealth management’ is overused.

In practice it often describes a service that is basically investment management and nothing else.

For that reason we describe the Pioneer Financial Advisory Ltd experience as True Wealth Management.
Our focus is on building an in-depth relationship with you and understanding your life ambitions, challenges and needs.
That knowledge provides the foundations that inform our financial planning and the advice we provide.

The Pioneer Financial Advisory Ltd True Wealth Management model has
three core elements.
 Pioneer Financial Advisory Ltd - True Wealth management
Taking them into consideration enables us to deliver a
full and thorough service.

Comprehensive
Financial Planning

Led by highly qualified and experienced Chartered Planners with the support of expert technical specialists.

We take a team-based approach to financial analysis, construction and the delivery of solutions to address your important
life decisions.

Our process is methodical and meticulous to ensure that planning is as accurate and efficient as possible. All aspects of your circumstances are taken in account. We believe this is critical to reflect the impact that other activities may have on your financial life.



The team

Investment
Advice

Having assessed the most suitable investment strategy, research is undertaken by our expert and experienced team.

Supported by our Investment Committee and in consultation with your senior planner and technical team, they construct a portfolio that best suits your requirements and risk profile.

Investments are regularly monitored and adjustments take place as necessary. As much importance is attributed to wealth preservation as it is to growth.

Management of Key
Relationships

We believe in joined up thinking.

That means we will liaise with your other professional advisers such as accountants and lawyers. It may also involve trustees, executors and other family members. This is necessary as the important influences we take into account are not always financial.

Obtaining this oversight reinforces our commitment to ensuring your life challenges and financial plans are not addressed in isolation. They need to be delivered with the benefit of understanding the ‘whole picture’.
