I have spent my life in private client wealth management looking after clients, their families, pensions, charities and general life care. Many have become friends over the years and it remains a highly personal business although hopefully a level of professionalism has developed over the years as the needs have become more complex. You can hear more about me, the work I do for my clients and the approach I take with investing in this episode of the Fifty Faces podcast.
