An adviser’s insight
Aim to maximise your cash savings
It might shock you to know that 28% of people hold their cash in interest-free savings accounts(1), receiving no return on their hard-earned money. Because under current rules a basic rate taxpayer can earn up to £1,000 in interest from their savings without paying tax, these people could be missing out on a significant financial boost that they could be enjoying.
This is even more relevant when you consider that the average person typically holds up to 25% of their available money on cash deposit(2). So, by reviewing your cash and tackling any ‘lazy money’, you’ll be making a great start at getting your finances in shape and achieving longer-term financial security.
If your money isn’t working as hard as it could, I can help. By making it easy to access potentially better interest rates, I can help you to aim to maximise your cash savings – giving you more money to spend on the things you enjoy or helping you grow your money towards a longer-term goal.

More about me
I commenced my career in the financial services industry in 2004 as a Financial Adviser with Old Mutual. After a three-year tenure with the company, I established my own IFA practice, which I managed for five years before divesting it and relocating to Cape Town. Subsequently, I assumed the role of senior adviser at a boutique IFA practice in Cape Town, where I served for a decade.
In 2021, I transitioned to the UK and commenced my position as a financial adviser with Quilter in 2023.
With over 20 years of experience, my primary focus has been on delivering personalised advice and cultivating enduring client relationships. Since joining Quilter Financial Advisers, I have engaged with both individual and corporate clients, providing tailored financial guidance. I have honed my expertise in diverse areas, including Pension Planning, Investments, Protection, and Inheritance Tax Planning. My dedication to providing high-calibre financial advice remains unwavering. Throughout my professional trajectory, I have consistently pursued the objective of safeguarding my clients' financial well-being and prosperity.
