Financial planning
You can rest assured when you have a clear plan for the future...
Financial planning can help you achieve your goals in life, whether it’s a comfortable retirement, buying the home you always wanted, saving for school fees or passing on your wealth.
Saltus financial planners are experts at creating financial plans for clients at every stage of life. Our mission is to help you take control of your finances. We can help you map out your financial and life goals, and ensure that you have a plan that will deliver them. We will help you to navigate the complex landscape of the investment world and assist with structuring your investments in a tax-efficient manner.
We create a personalised and collaborative financial plan with you by listening to, and understanding, your needs and then applying our knowledge and expertise. This not only ensures your money continues to deliver for you but builds enduring personal relationships based on trust and experience.
As an independent financial planning firm, we are able to provide objective advice that is aligned with your best interests. We can offer the best of both worlds, either selecting from in-house investment strategies managed by Saltus Asset Management or from an alternative provider, depending on your objectives.

What types of clients do you work with?
We work with individuals from all walks of life and have a diverse client list consisting of people from professional backgrounds (including senior executives, entrepreneurs, lawyers, accountants, consultants and others) and non-professional backgrounds alike.
We typically work with clients with £250,000 or more in investable assets. However, we do also work with young high earners who have £100,000 or more to invest and are able to reach £250,000 within five years.
How much do I need to be comfortable?
This has to be one of the most common questions we are asked as financial planners. The reality is that everyone is different. We’ll take the time to analyse what you spend now, and how this may change in retirement to help provide you with a precise answer.
What makes Saltus different?
We work in partnership with our clients and can take care of all your needs in one place, all supported by industry leading technology.
As well as surrounding you with a team of highly qualified individuals, we have our own platform, can provide the tax wrappers you require, source investment solutions from the wider market or from our award-winning asset management team, and review your protection needs to ensure your family are looked after should the worst happen.
How do we get started and how much will it cost?
Once you have contacted us, we’ll have an initial discussion to understand more about what you are trying to achieve and how your existing assets and investments are structured. We’ll then have some further meetings to garner an in-depth understanding of your requirements and provide you with a report that outlines our recommended financial plan.
There’s no charge for the initial steps. As our plans are bespoke to your objectives, charges will depend on what’s recommended to you. These will be outlined in full before you progress with us.

Pensions and retirement planning
Deciding when to retire is a challenging decision and can feel like a leap of faith. At Saltus, we gather information on all of your existing assets and then use our technology and expertise to show you exactly how to achieve the retirement you’re after.
Reducing your tax burden
How to structure your wealth and access income should be approached in a sophisticated way. A detailed financial plan may use pensions, ISAs, general investment accounts, offshore bonds and other tax wrappers to ensure you can draw your money in a tax-efficient manner.
Consolidating your wealth
Holding multiple investment accounts and pensions can mean they’re hard to keep track of and administer. We’ll help you overcome this by consolidating your accounts into a single plan so that you can understand your financial position with ease.
Protecting you and your assets
We protect our cars and houses without much thought yet you might be the most valuable asset in your family. Whatever your situation, we can provide advice to ensure you have the right level of insurance in place to keep your finances protected.
Passing on your wealth
Estate planning is more important than just having a Will. We’ll work closely with you to understand how estate planning, which has emotional as well as financial consequences, can impact your overall financial plan.
Significant life events
Significant life events can present great opportunities but also considerable challenges. Whether you are going through a business sale, divorce or are receiving a lump sum, we’ll help build a financial plan to meet your changing lifestyle.
