Director Jonathan Blake comments: "Uncomplicated financial solutions are almost certainly the best and, by placing client service first, we strongly believe we can give direction to all who wish to review their financial futures. A directly regulated quality practice is precisely what our clients want and deserve, and we are confident for the future.

As a testimony to how the business is run we have recently completed a customer satisfaction survey under the Financial Services Authority's "Treating Customers Fairly" initiative. We have had a very positive response, with over 25% of the survey returned so far, and highlighting that, as a practice, clients are not only pleased with the service provided but also that we remain clients' first point of reference. Also, there is praise for the way we convey information to our clients, making sure that it is simple and jargon-free.

This, we believe, is very important as financial markets are constantly changing and with it the jargon within the industry."
