Our fees

Clear, considered and always explained upfront.

Our approach to fees

We believe good financial advice should be transparent, fair and aligned to the value it provides. Because no two clients are the same, the cost of advice can vary depending on your circumstances, the complexity of your needs and the level of support you require.

Our fees reflect the advice and support you receive. Our charges are calculated as a percentage of the assets involved, and we’ll explain the costs in full before you decide to proceed.

Discovery meeting

Your initial consultation is provided at no cost. This meeting allows us to understand your circumstances, goals and priorities, while giving you the opportunity to see how we work and whether we’re the right fit for you.

Following this meeting, there is no obligation to proceed.

 

Ongoing advice

Financial planning is an ongoing process that evolves as your life and circumstances change.

For clients who choose to work with us long term, we offer ongoing support tailored to your needs. This can range from regular reviews and investment oversight to more comprehensive planning covering areas such as tax, retirement and estate planning.

Where ongoing support is appropriate, we offer different levels of service depending on the complexity of your needs:

Basic service

typically for clients with straightforward arrangements.

 

This service includes:

  • Annual suitability review
  • Review of aims and objectives
  • Attitude to risk reassessment
  • Investment valuation and performance
  • Fund updates and market commentary
  • ISA allowance planning
  • Access to your adviser between reviews

Holistic service

for clients requiring broader, more in-depth planning.

 

This service includes everything in Basic, plus:

  • Adjustments to contributions or withdrawals
  • Broader tax-efficient planning (including pensions)
  • Cashflow modelling (updated annually)
  • Consideration of taxation and legislative changes
  • Ethical investment considerations

How will you benefit?

Our approach to fees is built around fairness and long-term partnership.

Behind every recommendation Andrew provides is careful analysis, considered judgement and a genuine commitment to your financial wellbeing.

Our fees reflect the depth of planning and personal attention involved, helping you feel reassured and confident in the decisions you make, both now and in the years ahead.

Both my husband and I use Andrew for financial planning. Advice is clear, questions are welcomed and are thoroughly answered in terms we can understand. Our differing approaches to financial risk are considered, and are respected in our individual plans which are regularly reviewed.

I engaged Andrew’s services for around 8 months in 2022 he helped me make tax efficient decisions and set me on a path to improve my overall financial position and plan for retirement, there was no problem when I decided to go it alone and would use Andrew’s services again when required when I am at another crossroads.

I've had Andrew as my financial advisor for quite a few years, he really understands what my requirements are and makes sure he tailors my products accordingly. He explains everything clearly and has brilliant knowledge of products and how they can be used. I would highly recommend Andrew, I wouldn't want to use any other financial advisor.

Andrew is extremely professional and well-informed. I found him via reviews and have never regretted the choice for what has been a complicated setting up of a post-divorce annuity. He came twice to the house for meetings which was much appreciated. He is patient, emotionally-intelligent and never pushy; he thinks about what is best for the client. He sources excellent products, explains his thinking; he follows up, is pro-active. While being clear, concise and in control he is always warm and friendly. I appreciated the fact he was prompt to answer queries and also nudged us to complete paperwork, etc. Totally to be recommended.

Andrew has looked after our financial planning for the past couple of years. Throughout this time we have found him to be proactive and responsive. He is the first financial advisor who has taken the time to really understand our situation and encouraged us to work out what our true priorities are regarding retirement plans, inheritance and insurance.

I had the pleasure of meeting with the incredibly professional financial broker who not only brought a wealth of knowledge to the table but also an exceptional level of courtesy and professionalism. His visit to my home was marked by genuine generosity with his time, as he patiently explained every facet of his offerings, answering all my questions with precision and clarity. Beyond his expertise, what truly stood out was his ability to impart valuable insights and pointers, tailored to my financial needs and aspirations. Engaging and personable, he made complex financial concepts accessible and left me feeling empowered and confident in navigating my financial future. If you're seeking a broker who combines expertise with warmth and generosity, look no further!

Andrew at SFP was recommended to us by a friend and has been very helpful to us as first time buyers each step of the way. He was always at the end of the phone when we had any questions and gave valuable advice. We would also recommend him to anyone in a similar position as ourselves.

I have always found Andrew Winstanley of Sustainable Financial Planning to be very understanding of my situation as well as the targets I want to achieve from my investments. This results in Andrew being able to formulate and then clearly explain the strategy he recommends to achieve those targets which in turn allows me to make informed decisions on how to invest for my future.

I wanted a mortgage with the best possible rate, and to understand how much I would be able to borrow to buy a new property. Andrew at SFP has been there every step of the way through the mortgage process, providing me advice and support. He is always at the end of an email or phone call any time I need him. We have been able to secure a fantastic rate just as the rates were going up, and I can’t thank him enough for this. I would 100% recommended him to anyone I know needing a mortgage or anything else. Andrew’s services are far better than any mortgage advisor I have used before.

We chose to use SFP through recommendation and were utterly impressed from start to finish. Andy’s industry knowledge and his inclination to not obfuscate the process meant we felt in control of our decisions throughout and his personal approach truly made us feel valued. The ease and speed in which he answered our queries was exemplary and we really felt like we could rely on him in what formed quite a complex transaction. We cannot recommend his services enough. Many Thanks.
