At Howard Wright Financial Planning, we believe that exceptional financial advice is not just about providing investment recommendations or setting up a pension for the future. It’s about delivering a truly tailored service that evolves with your needs, ensuring you’re always informed, confident, and in control of your financial future.
This commitment to providing the highest standard of financial advice has earned us five-star reviews across platforms such as Google and Trustpilot, as well as long-term relationships with clients across the UK. So, what makes our services at Howard Wright stand out? Here’s how we deliver a 5-star experience both at the initial stage and on an ongoing basis.
The Initial Stage: Setting the Foundations for Financial Success
When you become a client, we don’t just provide you with a generic financial plan. Instead, we take a structured and detailed approach to understanding your financial situation, long term objectives, and concerns.
1. Understanding Your Goals and Needs
Each of our clients have unique financial goals, whether it’s securing a comfortable retirement, growing their investment portfolio, managing inheritance tax, or protecting family wealth. Our first step is to listen carefully and truly understand what matters most to you.
Comprehensive Fact-Finding We conduct an in-depth assessment of your current financial position, including your assets, income, liabilities, and expenses.
Your Life Goals and Aspirations Whether you want to retire early, leave a legacy, or purchase a holiday home, we shape our advice around what you want to achieve.
Risk Profiling and Investment Preferences Understanding your comfort level with investment risk allows us to recommend solutions tailored to your preferences.
2. Creating a Bespoke Financial Plan
Once we understand your goals, we begin crafting your tailored financial plan. Unlike many firms that take a ‘one size fits-all’ approach, our Chartered Financial Advisers provide personalized recommendations that align with your goals.
- Retirement Planning: We calculate what you need for a comfortable retirement and build a strategy to get you there.
- Investment Management: We recommend portfolios designed for long-term growth while considering your risk tolerance.
- Tax-Efficient Strategies: From ISAs and pensions to inheritance tax planning, we ensure you’re making the most of every tax advantage.
- Protection Planning: Life insurance, income protection and critical illness cover ensure your family and assets are safeguarded.
3. Transparent and Clear Communication
At Howard Wright, we pride ourselves on being transparent. We ensure you fully understand every recommendation, and there are no hidden costs or jargon. We provide:
- Easy-to-understand reports outlining your financial plan.
- Clear explanations of investments, tax implications, and financial products.
- Transparent fee structures, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Ongoing Support: Keeping You Informed and on Track
Many financial advisers offer a great service initially but fail to provide regular updates, reviews, or meaningful communication once your initial plan is in place.
At Howard Wright, we believe financial planning is an ongoing journey, which is why we are committed to keeping you informed, engaged and confident about your financial future.
1. Regular Reviews to Keep Your Financial Plan on Track
Investment markets change, tax laws evolve and so do your personal circumstances. That’s why we conduct regular financial reviews to ensure your plan remains relevant and effective.
- Annual Reviews: A full financial check-up to ensure everything is progressing as planned and make adjustments where necessary.
- Proactive Adjustments: If new opportunities arise or market conditions shift, we’ll recommend updates to your financial plan.
2. Our E-Shot Service: Weekly & Monthly Investment Performance Updates
One of the key features that sets us apart is our E-Shot service, designed to provide you with updates on how your investments are performing.
- Weekly Investment Performance Updates – Stay informed as to how your investments have performed during the last seven days.
- Monthly Market Insights – Understand how wider economic events are impacting your investments.
This constant communication ensures that you’re never left in the dark about how your investments are performing or how financial markets are changing over time.
3. Access to Your Adviser Whenever You Need
Unlike some financial advisers who disappear after the initial setup, our team is always available to provide ongoing guidance and answer any questions. Whether you need a quick chat or an in-depth review, we are here when you need us.
- Phone and Email Support – Get answers to any queries promptly.
- Face-to-Face or Virtual Meetings – We offer flexible meetings to suit your schedule, either in person or virtually.
- Proactive Check-Ins – We contact you to ensure you’re happy with your financial plan and schedule your review meeting.
4. Keeping You Ahead with Proactive Advice
At Howard Wright, we don’t just react to changes, we anticipate them. Our team is constantly monitoring financial trends, tax changes and investment opportunities to ensure our clients are always ahead of the curve.
- Tax Planning Opportunities – We proactively highlight ways to reduce your tax liabilities.
- Market Updates – If major economic shifts occur, we help you understand the impact on your finances.
- Retirement Income Strategies – As you approach retirement, we adjust your plan to ensure a smooth transition.
