For doctors

Your NHS pension, private practice and investments, planned as one.

Consultants and GPs earn well and have little time to spare. The NHS pension, the Annual Allowance and private practice income all affect one another, so a decision in one moves the others. We plan them together, invest the money you own directly, and a practising NHS professor sits on our board.

01

NHS pension and Annual Allowance

Checks before each tax year ends, using our own NHS Annual Allowance planner.

For founders

The company you are building, and the wealth that comes with it.

Founders of spin-outs, grant-funded companies and owner-managed businesses face the same three questions: who owns what, where the cash should sit between funding rounds, and what the company is worth to an investor. We answer all three alongside your personal finances.

01

Company formation and share structure

Holding companies, share classes, shareholder agreements and EMI option schemes.

02

Taking money out

Salary, dividends and company-funded directors' pensions, planned for tax.

06

Your own wealth

For international families

One structure for a family with interests in several countries.

For families with interests across South Africa, the Middle East, Europe and the UK, whether local to the region or living there as expatriates. Capital often sits in offshore structures that keep it where it cannot be put to work. A single UK parent company that funds, and receives from, subsidiaries around the world keeps that capital working; offshore structures keep a role for capital that will never need to move.

01

A UK parent company

Group structure built around one parent that funds and receives from subsidiaries in each country.

02

Capital invested at the top

Surplus capital invested at parent-company level, through a low-cost broker.

03

Portfolios in three currencies

Holdings in GBP, EUR and USD, so returns match where the family spends and invests.

04

Across generations

Trusts and inheritance planning that work alongside the group structure.

Four countries, three custodians

Martin has worked in South Africa, the UK, Luxembourg and Saudi Arabia, where he was the first Chief Risk Officer of the Public Investment Fund. Accounts are held at Interactive Brokers, AJ Bell or Swissquote, including an existing Swissquote account where you already have one.
