Frequently Asked Questions

What is your minimum investment size?

Our minimum investment size is £500,000. However, we recognise that choosing an advisor is a big step. As such, some of our clients may start with a lower amount as they get comfortable and build their portfolios over a period of time. 

What is the difference between financial planning and wealth management?

Financial planning is setting up your wealth in the most efficient and tax-effective way for you and your family. Wealth managers tend to put a financial plan in place and then invest the money in the most suitable investment strategy.

The difference usually comes down to the amount you have to invest and the quality of the portfolio you get.

Where are Featherstone based?

We are based in an area of outstanding natural beauty on the 9000-acre Yattendon Estate in West Berkshire

We are positioned conveniently close to the counties of Hampshire, Oxfordshire, Surrey, Wiltshire and Buckinghamshire. We also use serviced offices in London.

However, whilst many of our clients are based in London and the home counties, we are not constrained by location and have clients in all corners of the UK.  

 

Do you offer school fee advice?

Yes. It is no secret that school fees have risen significantly above the rate of inflation over the last two decades. We recognise the importance of putting a sensible plan in place to ensure that school fees funding is considered and factored into your overall financial plan. The financial planning process cannot start early enough.
