Service Propositions

Our desire is to be your partner in creating security and building wealth. We hope to earn the right to work with you in the future.

We believe it is important for us to be clear about the levels of services we offer because this will enable you to select the way in which we work for you.

We take ownership and responsibility for our immediate guidance and advice. How our relationship works beyond that will be determined by the service proposition you chose.

Feedback we have sought has indicated that there are essentially 3 levels of service we should offer:


Service level 1
