Money needs a plan. Here’s where to start

Money doesn’t make decisions on its own. Left sitting in cash, it quietly loses value. That’s why money needs a plan. It’s not about being wealthy or knowing all the answers – it’s about giving your money direction. And in the UK, many people miss out simply because they don’t take that first step.

  • Most people in the UK save sporadically or leave money sitting in cash – missing out on growth.
  • Planning gives peace of mind. It turns uncertainty into clarity.
  • The earlier you start, the more powerful the impact – but it’s never too late.
  • Quilter’s purpose is to help build brighter financial futures. That starts with a plan.
  • Investing always carries risk. Investing can help your money grow over time, but the value of investments can go down as well as up.

Making your money work for you

Why investing matters

  • Lazy money loses value over time – inflation chips away at it.
  • Investing little and often helps your money grow without needing to be an expert.
  • A plan helps you stay focused and avoid reactive decisions.

Inflation and ‘lazy money’

  • Inflation quietly erodes the value of your savings.
  • £10,000 in cash today could be worth significantly less in 10 years.
  • Investing helps protect your money from inflation and grow it over time.

Angus' location

Edinburgh
Scotland
United Kingdom

Angus is located in Edinburgh and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.

As a qualified Financial Adviser with the CII Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning (DipPFS), I work closely with clients to create bespoke financial plans that align with their goals, values, and life stages. My advice spans areas such as investment planning, pensions, protection, and tax efficiency - all delivered with a focus on building trust and long-term relationships.

Before becoming a financial adviser, I built my career in fund services, where I gained valuable experience working behind the scenes in areas involving pensions and investments. This background gave me a solid understanding of how the financial world works - knowledge I now use to break down complex topics and provide clear, practical advice. I enjoy helping clients feel confident and in control of their finances, no matter their starting point.

Outside of work, I’m passionate about the outdoors and am currently on a personal mission to climb all 282 Munros in Scotland. I also enjoy playing badminton and scuba diving, and I’m a certified Divemaster. I believe that, like any great adventure, successful financial planning starts with a clear map and the right guide.
