Investment Philosophy & Approach

Sebastian’s investment philosophy is centred on providing tailored, long-term strategies that align with each client’s financial goals, risk tolerance, and individual circumstances. He believes that successful investing is built on careful planning, diversification, and disciplined decision-making rather than short-term market speculation. He takes a holistic approach, integrating investment management with pensions, tax planning, and overall financial objectives to ensure that every recommendation supports the client’s broader goals. Sebastian prioritises clear communication, translating complex financial concepts into understandable guidance. Portfolios are regularly reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in market conditions or personal circumstances, ensuring investments remain suitable, effective, and aligned with long-term objectives.

Fees & Charging Structure

Sebastian’s fees are tailored to each client’s individual needs, so the exact cost will depend on your circumstances and the type of advice required. For a precise estimate, it’s best to contact Sebastian to discuss your situation and the areas of advice you need. General guidance on fees: Investment and Pension advice: Advisers typically charge a percentage of the amount invested or transferred, usually ranging from 1% to 3%, depending on the size of the investment. Ongoing advice: If you choose to receive regular advice, an annual fee of 0.5% to 1% may apply. Alternative fee structures: Some advisers may offer an hourly rate or a fixed fee, or a combination of approaches. All charges are agreed upfront and applied only with your explicit consent. Payments are usually deducted directly from your investment or pension. Since 2012, advisers are no longer paid by commissions from investment or pension providers—they are remunerated solely by their clients, ensuring impartial and transparent advice.
