What our clients say

Frequently asked questions

What is financial planning?

Financial planning is the process of understanding your current financial position, your goals and your priorities, and putting a plan in place to help you achieve them. 

It brings together different areas of your finances, such as investments, retirement planning and protection, to give you a clear and structured approach to your future.

Our integrated approach to your finances enables you to experience consistent financial advice you can trust.

What types of clients do you work with?

Our clients typically have £300,000 or more in investable assets. 

What does a financial planner do?

A financial planner looks at your entire financial picture to help create a roadmap for your future. At Foster Denovo, we can help you to build a solid financial plan that provides direction and purpose. This involves reviewing your income, expenses, investments, protection and more to help make sure your money is working as hard as possible to meet your specific life goals.

How much does financial planning cost?

The cost of financial planning depends entirely on the complexity of your circumstances and the level of support you require. We believe in complete transparency. During your free initial meeting, your adviser will discuss our fee structure in detail so you have full clarity before any work begins on your behalf.

At what age should I start financial planning?

It is never too early or too late to begin. Whether you are at the start of your career, looking to maximise your wealth in mid-life, or preparing for a comfortable retirement, professional planning could help you make the most of tax efficiencies and investment opportunities at every stage.

How often should my financial plan be reviewed?

We recommend reviewing your financial plan at least once a year. However, it is also important to speak with your adviser whenever you experience a significant life change. This might include a change in career, receiving an inheritance, or shifting your retirement goals, as these events may require a more immediate adjustment to your strategy.
