Senior Financial Planning Director
London
My role is to work very closely with investment managers and their clients, understanding their needs and putting together suitable strategies. This tends to build on and add value to the already strong relationships that the investment managers have with their clients. Most of the planning I do involves tax mitigation via an array of investment vehicles including pensions, trusts, offshore investment bonds, enterprise investment schemes and offshore structures. The private clients I often work with include: lawyers, private equity partners, barristers, entrepreneurs as well as chief executives of various institutions.
