Investing for Business Owners

Effective. Simple. Consistent.

We are Brilliant Sorters of Financial Stuff

We understand that your time is spent managing and growing your business, so you don’t have the time or inclination to manage your investments.

Investing doesn’t have to be complicated. Or expensive. Over the years, we’ve found a refreshingly straightforward process that is easy to understand and effective. We call it our ‘Sleep Soundly’ solution.

We recommend it for any medium to long term investment portfolios whether the money is owned by you personally, your company or your pension fund.

HOW IT WORKS

Define

Starting with your objectives and timescale, we discuss and agree what you want and need from your investments to achieve your objectives.

Design

We recommend an appropriate mix of assets and funds, taking care to ensure that you feel comfortable with your portfolio.

Discipline

We work closely with you to ensure that your investments are regularly reviewed and that they remain suitable, making changes only with your authority.

OUR APPROACH

We have a tried and tested investment philosophy developed over more than 20 years

During this time, our Investment Director, Michael Carden, has run our Investment Committee and is responsible for reviewing and researching the asset allocation and funds we recommend.

To add depth and breadth to our inhouse investment expertise, we also engage the services of an external independent research company.

All our work is backed by

The Cardens Promise:

we want to work with clients that want to work with us – so we don’t lock you in to any long term contract and you can end our agreement at any time, without penalty. We’ll only charge you for any work that we’ve done for you up to that time.
