The accrual of wealth is not totally dependent on how you invest your money. To increase your net worth over your lifetime requires order and organization, i.e. doing the right things, at the right time, in the right way.

Investment Planning

As with any investment made in life—a family, a home, a college education—the best results are achieved by carefully constructing a plan and then following that plan consistently over time. A well-crafted investment plan and investment policy statement provides a broad context for making important financial decisions and then prescribes a prudent investment philosophy and set of investment management procedures for achieving your long-term financial goals.

Neil Phillips / Newbury

Our financial arrangements were causing us a lot of concern. Then Ray Best came into our lives and showed us how to improve our pensions and reduce the cost of our monthly mortgage payments. It’s helped us immensely. He has a knack of explaining all the options to explain the relative merits in terms that make sense. We trust Ray.

Michael & Christine Moorhouse / Exeter

After advice from our bank, we noticed the values of our investments dropping like a stone, one of our friends recommended Ray Best. Ray has dealt with our investments ever since; we have had complete peace of mind with our finances for over 10 years – how do you put a price on that? He also helped us with some complex trust planning, and we saved an absolute fortune following Ray’s advice.

Annie Reynolds / Kent

Ray advised my mother for 17 years, as a result of his investment skills left a large estate. I now have a very comfortable lifestyle. If you are looking for a very capable adviser, who takes care of the complexities but speaks to you as a trusted friend then I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Ray Best.

Barry Howard / Wokingham

I had an opportunity to make a large contribution to my pension, the problem was my existing financial adviser wanted to take a big chunk out of it as a commission. Then I was introduced to Ray Best, he charged reasonable fees and provided ongoing advice to make my pension pot bigger. He has been my adviser for eighteen years now, I trust him completely.

Achieve Your Goals

Although your overriding requirement is accruing and protecting your wealth, to achieve those goals requires us to take account of many different issues, options, and possibilities.

If for instance you’re retired, the arrangements we propose are likely to be quite different from those we would recommend for a business owner or an employee.

But in every instance, we take things one step at a time and we’re thorough – extremely thorough. Before we get anywhere near investments, we sort out the essentials. So irrespective of your employment status, our first step will be an examination of your will and insurances.
