A little bit about Daniel
I’ve been working within the finance industry for over 20 years. I am extremely passionate about my role and responsibilities and spend time building strong long-term relationships with clients, helping to firstly identify goals and objectives, but more importantly helping to understand and educate how these can be achieved. I will develop financial planning solutions that suit your individual needs and introduce you to specialist third party providers where I feel they can add value.

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.
