An adviser’s insight
When is the right time to invest?
There’s always a degree of uncertainty when it comes to investing, so it’s natural for some people to feel nervous about it.
When the news is reporting stock market volatility, it’s understandable that some people might feel more cautious about investing. But including investments in your long-term financial plan is a smart way to give your money the best chance to grow.
Keeping money in cash might feel like a safe option, and having some money easily available is a sensible decision. But too much cash could end up costing you more because of inflation’s ability to eat away at the value of your savings. For example, when £10,000 is invested it can grow by 78% over 30 years, but if it was kept in a current account its value could actually reduce by 59%*.
There are lots of options when it comes to investing, and I’m here to guide you through them. I can help you decide things like which risk level is right for you, what types of investments to use to maximise your tax efficiency, and how to create an investment plan tailored to your circumstances and goals. I can also show you how different investment approaches could impact your finances over the long term.
If you’re thinking about how investing today can help create the life you want in the future, let’s talk about how I can support and guide you through the process.
The value of investments and the income they produce can fall as well as rise. You may get back less than you invested.

Testimonials
N. Ingoe
I required a financial adviser to help with my general money situation and to access my 30 year pension and was recommended to Heta.
Heta visited me in my home and was quickly able to grasp my situation and assured me that she would get things moving quickly.
This she did and, throughout, I have found Heta to be very reliable, responding to my emails quickly and a great person to have on my side.
R. Harbourne
From our first conversation she put me at ease and helped me understand my financial situation better and feel more optimistic about it.
Heta is an excellent communicator and kept me informed every step of the way. She acted quickly when any difficulties arose and resolved them completely.
She helped me clarify my goals and got me where I needed to be.
I have already referred a colleague to her and would highly recommend her services to anyone.
