Why Did We Start Abbey Road?
To start each conversation with
’how can I help you?
WE BELIEVE PERSONALISED SERVICE IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING FROM WEALTH MANAGEMENT
Families extend a huge amount of Trust to their financial services Providers, which we don’t believe is Reciprocated most of the time due To inherent conflicts of interest
- Nearly all providers have a revenue and AUM target for each client which can lead to investment recommendations which are not suitable.
- Hidden fees and dirty pricing.
- Commoditised advice, based around structured products.
- Frequent changing of relationship managers and advisors leads to a lack of continuity and understanding of what the family requires.
How are we different?
- Our fees are transparent and agreed up front, payable by the family.
- We do not receive any retrocessions from banks, and so we are truly independent.
- Happy to work with all banks
- Able to analyse every recommendation based solely on its merits
- Abbey Road is our company, we are not going anywhere and we aim to establish long term relationships with families that ensures continuity of investment philosophy and strategy.
