Financial Adviser DipPFS in Edinburgh

A little bit about Billy

I’m a Financial Planner working with Quilter, helping you make informed decisions about your finances and plan for the future you want with clarity.

I provide advice across a range of areas including tax-efficient investing, pensions, protection, and retirement planning. My approach is straightforward – I take the time to understand your situation and what you want to achieve, then build a clear, personalised plan to help you move towards your objectives.

I believe financial advice should be simple and easy to understand, and I aim to help clients take control of their finances and move forward with confidence.

An adviser’s insight

If it’s time for financial advice, I can help you

Coming into a sum of money can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time, especially if it’s sudden or unexpected. And while you’re trying to process all the emotions involved, you’ll probably have to make some important financial decisions as well.

Whether you’ve received an inheritance, a windfall, or a lump sum from work, having an adviser to help guide you and make a sensible plan can take away some of the stress and worry so you can focus on the benefits.

I can help you understand all the different options available to you, taking advantage of any allowances so your money works as tax-efficiently as possible.

I can also help you adjust your financial plans or make completely new ones by showing you how the choices you make today could impact your future.

Together, we can put your money to work in a way that helps you feel confident about the future.

More about me

I hold the CII Diploma in regulated financial planning (DipPFS) and continue to follow a structured programme of professional development, keeping my knowledge up to date and advice aligned with current standards and best practice.

Outside of work, I enjoy keeping active and spending time outdoors. In my previous career I played football professionally and I still play part-time now - although I’m not sure how much longer my body will allow it. I also play golf regularly, but seem to be getting worse somehow, and I enjoy sea swimming too - mainly to numb the pain in my legs after football.

I want to help people navigate the complexity of the financial world and make things easier to understand, so whatever your query - no matter how big or small - feel free to get in touch for a chat.
