About Us...
Acorn Financial Planning is a firm of Independent Financial Advisers based in the heart of Cheltenham Spa, Gloucestershire, UK.
The Partners, Nick Jones and Peter Lawson, have both worked in the Financial Services Industry for their entire working lives (over 20 years each). Our philosophy is to make a complicated subject as clear and concise as possible for our Clients and to provide a first class ongoing service.
We provide advice to both individuals and companies on all aspects of financial planning, through a long term approach of fully understanding our clients' needs, wants and aspirations and then prioritising objectives.
As Independent Financial Advisers, our clients benefit from our being able to offer advice on the broadest range of products and services. Whether it be for retirement planning, investment advice, life assurance, income protection, inheritance tax planning or simply reducing costs, we have many years of experience in finding the most suitable solution for our clients' needs.
We provide advice and help following a personal / business financial review which can take place at a convenient time and place. Usually a review will start with a very broad discussion of your concerns and aspirations, before moving on to a thorough financial review.
Following your initial review, we will take time to consider your situation, needs and priorities before writing a detailed financial report. We will discuss this face to face in a follow up meeting in which we'll fully explain our recommendations and agree affordable priorities to assist you in acheiving your objectives.
Our charges can be structured in several ways. Some of our clients prefer a fee-based approach, whilst others are more comfortable with a commission basis. Either way will result in our fully disclosing our fees in an open and transparent manner.
