I have been a client of Mr. Andrew Reeves over the last 18 months and can wholeheartedly say that I have found the service that he has provided over this period of time to be highly professional.

The service that he has provided has always been fast and efficient, understanding my needs more than I ever could, based on my personality and business circumstances, providing solutions to these.

I can honestly say that he has always been at the end of the phone whenever I have phoned him and has always got back to me the following day with various solutions to my questions or, at least to keep me informed as to when he will have these questions answered.

Andrew's friendly and courteous manner, combined with his up-to-date knowledge of business whilst being very well connected with other Professionals has all proved to make my association with him and the service that he has provided, a very worthwhile experience on all levels.

I highly recommend Andrew Reeves for the work carried out in purchasing an annuity with my private pension. He acquired the best value for me with the least amount of hassle. I will be using his services again when my wife takes her pension." Regards Martin Broomfield

Pat and I would like to thank you for the service you have given us regarding the matter of resolving our "Inheritance tax problems". We appreciate our problem was fraught with difficulties and was causing us great concern to ensure we could give our daughters all the protection we could in the event of our demise.
We cannot thank you enough for the consideration you gave to us during our meetings to protect our future and at the same time our daughters would be given a chance to benefit from their inheritance.
Thank you once again and we look forward to seeing you in the near future regarding other matters.

We have total confidence in IC's advice. Upturns are easy. Downturns are difficult to protect against. We feel better positioned and protected against the latter than ever before. We now know our financial selves much better than we ever did before.

From our "Treating the Customer Fairly" Questionnaire:

Q: What services have you received?

A: Holistic approach. Complete survey of all assets and expenditure, trusts, tax considerations etc within the context of our lifetime goals. Existing investments have been thoroughly investigated for overlap, suitability, cost and diversifcation. Quantitative optimisation has led to switching investments... Wills were adjusted.

I wish that I had met Andrew Reeves many years ago to see whether the advice I was given then with respect to pension provision agreed with his recommendations.

From our "Treating the Customer Fairly" Questionnaire:

Q: Did you feel that our Adviser was clear in his explanations and that you could ask any questions with confidence?

A: Yes, Adviser was very approachable and I felt confident in his replies.

Q: Do you have any other comments?

A: Very pleased with advice and thought process that went into it. I particularly liked the quantification of my future expenditure, which enabled a much more realistic approach to the question posed of "have I got enough money to retire?"

I was really impressed that you'd been through the small print and clearly knew the ins and outs of the policies. My IFA of old really didn't inspire much confidence in any sense - his comments typically like "yeah it probably covers you" and similar, were fairly worrying and ultimately didn't give the sort of piece of mind these things are designed to give you. Clearly a BIG contrast with the experience today.

His knowledge base around products, markets and potential options is fantastic, his approach to work is methodical and his ability to advise client to "do the right thing" is spot on.

Hey there Andrew, I just wanted to send you an email letting you know that I have just received a Masters offer from Imperial College Business School, starting this October. It was my top choice by far, and I have a huge thank you to make to you, as during my Interview we talked a lot about my time at The Investment Coach, and the article opportunity you gave me. I have no doubt that this was one area that they were extremely impressed with, and was a topic that really stood me out from the other candidates.  Thus I just wanted to say thank you again for your time, and opportunities you gave me, and I hope all is well at The Investment Coach.

We found The Investment Coach via a search engine and very much liked what we read on your website. The concept of Financial Coaching and the ability to 'proactively manage our finances, using online filing and storage tools and having a feeling of being super-organised' was particularly appealing.
We asked a considerable number of questions by email and by telephone in order to fully understand the type of investment we were considering. Andrew answered all our questions fully, promptly and with considerable patience - this was very much appreciated and gave us confidence in the choice of investment.
We were particularly pleased with the ethos of The Investment Coach in providing a comprehensive financial coaching service enabling us to make joint decisions with The Investment Coach regarding our long-term investment strategy.

Obtained a complete picture of my starting position and then recommended suitable products for my needs. In my case, my interest was in retirement planning and a particularly valuable exercise he encouraged me to do, was to ascertain how much I spent and on what. This enabled me to establish how much I needed in retirement. I felt confident that the advice was as good as possible and that the adviser was well informed.
I also liked the use of the Voyant software package, which models different "what-if" scenarios and allows you to look at your situation if, for example, inflation rises to 5%. I did not feel there was anything that could have been done better.

Andrew Reeves took time to engage completely with my needs and requirements, made recommendations that suited them, and responded fully and promptly to my many questions as his recommendations were in areas of investment with which I was not familiar. Once my investments were in place; I was supplied with monthly reports, often with personal explanations if action taken was unusual; and also a yearly report which was particularly useful, as his authorial position was shoulder to shoulder with me, externally overviewing the performance of my investments within the whole investment market environment, and offering suggestions and advice for the coming year.

Andrew is very professional, and in a very professional world where everything that happens is observed, classified, measured and quantified, the seemingly safe course is to advise within this received wisdom, which is what Andrew did. Post 2009 markets though operate outside the envelope for short term ends which made a nonsense of the hitherto predicable. To his credit; Andrew in his latest advice to me, demonstrated that he was not only aware of this, but had solutions too, to exploit it.

Gordon, London, 26th April 2013
