An adviser’s insight
If it’s time for financial advice, I can help you
Coming into a sum of money can be exciting and overwhelming at the same time, especially if it’s sudden or unexpected. And while you’re trying to process all the emotions involved, you’ll probably have to make some important financial decisions as well.
Whether you’ve received an inheritance, a windfall, or a lump sum from work, having an adviser to help guide you and make a sensible plan can take away some of the stress and worry so you can focus on the benefits.
I can help you understand all the different options available to you, taking advantage of any allowances so your money works as tax-efficiently as possible.
I can also help you adjust your financial plans or make completely new ones by showing you how the choices you make today could impact your future.
Together, we can put your money to work in a way that helps you feel confident about the future.

Testimonials
J Higgins
Shazana has been my financial advisor for almost 20 years. When she took over she conducted a complete review of my investment portfolio as my circumstances had changed. After discussing my financial needs and objectives she made a number of very sensible proposals to simplify the management of my portfolio and cut costs.
Significant life events, the death of my wife, retirement, remarriage and establishing my sons in their own homes have been managed in an effective and thoughtful manner. Throughout she has been calm and patient and a fund of good, sensible, advice on the options open to me when changes arose. She also understood my difficulties in making, sometime quite complex, decisions.
L Dale
I have had a good relationship with Shazana for many years now. Initially she advised me on dealing with my financial affairs as a self-employed freelance translator and more recently has given me guidance on organising my income as I move towards retirement. She keeps abreast of what is happening in the financial world in these changing times and all the investments she has recommended to me have proved sound and successful. As a person who is not particularly ‘financially savvy’ I appreciate the way she makes all the arrangements very clear and easy to follow. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
