A little bit about Mohammed
As a dedicated financial adviser and jiu-jitsu enthusiast, I bring a strategic and disciplined approach to helping my clients secure their financial futures. Just as in jiu-jitsu, where each move requires careful planning and adaptability, I apply the same principles to financial planning, focusing on creating flexible strategies that can adapt to life’s changes and challenges.

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.
