Investment Adviser in Sandbanks
Your wealth deserves
smarter management.
Sandbanks property owners and business professionals trust us for evidence-based wealth management. Low-cost portfolios designed for capital preservation and long-term growth.
Our investment philosophy
We don't try to outsmart the market.
For Sandbanks residents with significant assets, we provide sophisticated portfolio management without the excessive fees. Our investment strategies are built on Nobel Prize-winning academic research and over 100 years of market data.
Four principles that guide every investment decision
Evidence over opinion
Our approach is built on Nobel Prize-winning research from economists like Eugene Fama, Kenneth French, and Harry Markowitz. Over 100 years of market data shows what actually drives returns.
Global diversification
The UK represents just 4% of global markets. Your portfolio holds over 10,000 companies across 40+ countries. As Markowitz proved, diversification is the only "free lunch" in investing.
Low costs matter
Research shows high costs are the strongest predictor of poor fund performance. Most active managers fail to beat the market after fees. Our fund costs are typically 0.2-0.4% vs 1.5%+ for active funds.
Stay the course
Since 1926, markets have experienced 7 major declines averaging 35%. Every single one was followed by a recovery. The average recovery took just 1.5 years. Patience is rewarded.

Investment questions from Sandbanks clients
Do you work with high-net-worth Sandbanks clients?
Yes. Many of our Sandbanks clients have significant portfolios from property sales, business exits, or inheritance. We specialise in managing larger portfolios efficiently, ensuring your wealth is working as hard as it can. This forms a key part of your comprehensive financial plan.
Why don't you use stockbrokers or wealth managers?
Traditional stockbrokers and discretionary wealth managers typically charge 1-2% annually, significantly eroding your returns over time. The evidence shows that after costs, the vast majority underperform simple index funds. We'd rather give you the market return at low cost. Learn more about our investment approach.
How do you protect Sandbanks property wealth?
For clients who've built wealth through Sandbanks property, we help diversify beyond UK real estate into global markets. We match your portfolio's risk level to your needs and rebalance regularly. This is especially important when planning retirement income.
What are your investment management fees?
We charge transparent fixed fees for ongoing portfolio management, agreed upfront. Underlying fund costs are typically 0.2-0.4%, far lower than the 1-2% charged by traditional wealth managers. For larger portfolios, this can save tens of thousands over time. See our full fee structure.
