Reviews and Ratings for Financial adviser Richard Harry, Swansea

History

Best Advice Wealth Management is a trading style of Best Price Financial Services Limited and is an owner-managed business run by Richard Harry, based in Margam, South Wales. The company was set up by Richard in April 2011 and prior to this, he was managing director at a large financial adviser group based across South Wales during which time he undertook all senior management roles.

Richard has over 30 years’ experience in the industry. He specialises in advising clients on the most suitable and tax-efficient investment, pension and savings options, whilst fully taking into account each individual client’s personal circumstances. He is motivated by nurturing strong and lasting client relationships, based on consistent delivery of risk adjusted outperformance, compared to peers.

At Best Advice Wealth Management, we have dedicated mortgage and protection specialists and are able to offer a comprehensive range of mortgage, loan and protection products to complement our established wealth management and financial planning services. Further details can be found through the relevant links at the top of the page.

Whilst the majority of our business is gained through provision of advised financial services on a face-to-face basis, we also offer a comprehensive range of general insurance, structured investment products and deposit plans through Best Price Financial Services Ltd which can be applied for online via our sister website, Best Price Financial Services.

Our Approach

At Best Advice Wealth Management, we believe that relationships are key and that effective financial planning is achieved through regular, timely dialogue with our clients over a sustained period. We offer high quality, informed and professional advice that will adapt and develop to help you realise your life goals. We are with you for the long run. 

We provide independent advice through a professional, personable service. We take time to understand your specific situation, goals and objectives and then design a financial planning strategy to meet your needs.

Consultation

We invite you to contact us to arrange an initial no obligation, no cost, face-to-face consultation during which we’ll establish what you are looking to achieve and how we believe we can help. If you decide that you want us to undertake a financial review, we’ll look at your existing arrangements together, review the performance of your portfolio and the cover provided by your existing personal insurances, taking note of your current risk capacity and any necessary changes to your tax wrappers.

Signing a contract

Recommendations

Following a review, we would prepare our recommendations using the information obtained from you, develop a comprehensive plan with timescales, then take you through these recommendations in detail. Once agreed, we would implement your plan, following all our recommendations and at this stage we would establish the appropriate frequency and level of future reviews with your agreement. Whilst it is our intention to maintain regular dialogue, we ask our clients to inform us of any significant changes in circumstances or life-changing events to ensure that we are able to continue to offer the appropriate support towards achievement of financial goals.
