Financial Adviser DipPFS in East London
Hi, I'm Imran, a Financial Adviser with Quilter Financial Advisers. Good planning starts with understanding what matters most to you, whether that's retirement, protecting your family, aiming to grow your wealth or preparing for whatever comes next. My role is to help those decisions feel manageable, whatever life throws at you.
I work with individuals, families and business owners to build personalised plans that evolve as your life does. Understanding your goals, concerns and priorities comes first, so your finances end up supporting the life you want to live rather than dictating your choices. My background includes a First Class Honours degree in Economics and the Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning from the Chartered Insurance Institute. I use that grounding to turn complex decisions into clear, practical plans.
In the UK, there are around 3.3 million pension pots that are considered as ‘lost’, containing an average of around £9,500 per pot*. Nobody wants to be missing out on money they have built up in a pension, but there’s good news - this kind of financial hit is completely avoidable.
This one might seem obvious, but it’s easy to lose track of your pension pots, where they are, and what they’re doing. If you make a note of your pension providers, and check your pot(s) regularly, you’re far less likely to lose one of them over time.
Your investment allocation is where and how you’re investing your pension. Often, people will just use their pension provider’s default setting. But this might not actually be right for your retirement goals and risk profile. So, it’s a good idea to revisit this every few years.
If you’ve had a windfall recently, like a pay rise, bonus, or inheritance, putting a portion of it into your pension is a good idea. Not only is it tax-efficient, but you’ll be glad when your retirement comes around.
As an adviser, my role is to help you get all of this done simply, with all the facts and information you need. That might be helping you review your risk profile, consolidating old pension pots, or making a plan to help you retire early. Investing can help your money grow over time, but the value of investments can go down as well as up.
If that sounds good to you, please get in touch.

Imran is located in East London and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.
Financial planning is about far more than money. It's about having the freedom to focus on the people, experiences and ambitions that matter most to you.
My technical grounding comes from a First Class Honours degree in Economics and the Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning from the Chartered Insurance Institute. While these qualifications provided a strong technical foundation, it was the opportunity to apply that knowledge to people's lives that attracted me to financial planning.
Money sits behind many of life's most important decisions: retiring comfortably, supporting family, growing a business or leaving a legacy. Having a clear plan can make those decisions feel less overwhelming and more achievable. Helping a client move from feeling uncertain to feeling in control is the part of this job I find most rewarding.
As a husband and father, I think regularly about many of the same questions my clients face. Providing for the people who depend on you, protecting your family's future and making the right financial decisions are responsibilities I understand personally as well as professionally.
I provide holistic financial planning across a range of areas, including:
• Retirement and Pension Planning
• Investment and Wealth Management
• Tax-Efficient Financial Planning
• Estate and Inheritance Planning
• Personal and Family Protection
• Financial Planning for Business Owners
My approach is built around understanding what matters to you before making any recommendation. Every client's circumstances are different, so the advice I give reflects your specific goals and priorities. Plans don't stand still, so neither do we. I stay close to your situation and revisit the advice as your life changes.
Away from work, most of my time goes to my wife, my son and our wider family and friends. When I get the chance, I enjoy playing football, watching live sport and reading. It's how I switch off, recharge and keep perspective.
Too many people feel their finances are something to worry about rather than something working in their favour. My aim is to give clients clear, straightforward advice and a plan they actually understand, so every conversation ends with you knowing what we're doing, why we're doing it and how it supports your goals. Done well, financial planning should reduce uncertainty and give you the confidence to focus on living the life you want.
*The value of investments can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you invested.
In advising you, I follow a simple and trusted 3 step process:
We will arrange a time to talk about your goals and plans.
I'll prepare a tailored plan which always takes full account of your goals, and gives you the steps and expert support from me to get there. All explained simply.
I'll be there as your financial adviser to give you the support you need.
