S.C.Davies & Co.Wealth / Portfolio Management
Clive Evans and S.C.Davies & Co.

Many of our clients have now reached the point where, by working closely with us, they have built a substantial asset base and are looking to concentrate on the next phase of their plan, enjoying the money!

Others, having built up assets elsewhere, often in several different investment structures, feel that they also need a more personal approach to their accumulated capital.

In both cases, the answer is wealth management the art of getting the most of your wealth.

In simple terms, most structures that are excellent for creating wealth [planning phase 1] are not always suitable for managing wealth [planning phase 2].

What works great for regular savings of USD 3,500 per month doesn’t necessarily work so well for USD 500,000!

  1. Do your investments and savings add up to over $250,000?
  2. Were these investments made on an "ad hoc" basis over a number of years?
  3. Do you receive too much paperwork that doesn’t mean much to you?
  4. Would you like your investments to be coordinated professionally by a trusted independent adviser, rather than be handled by several?
  5. Are you happy with the quality of investment advice that you are currently receiving?
  6. Would you prefer to receive personal, face to face attention by experienced decision makers, backed up by regular written reports?
  7. Would you like better investment returns than you are getting?
  8. When you die, will your assets pass directly to your family with the minimum administrative hassle and the lowest possible liability to taxation?
  9. Will your regular future income from your investments have the lowest possible taxation?
  10. Is confidentiality and discretion an important issue to you?
  11. Overall do you feel your current arrangements could be easier to understand?
  12. Did you know that you could have your own investment manager creating bespoke solutions just for you?

Most people feel that the benefits of individual investment management and private banking are the preserve of the super rich.

We take the view that any individual with more than $250,000 to invest has achieved significant success in their chosen field and deserve the performance and personal attention offered by the World's finest investment firms.

With this in mind, we are delighted to have developed a close working relationship with a leading London based provider of investment management and private banking services - S C Davies & Co. Ltd (SCD). SCD are a highly regarded specialist boutique firm looking after the affairs of people based all over the world, many just like you!

SCD’s services can be used in conjunction with Isle of Man or Swiss based structures to provide a full range of offshore benefits.

Contact Clive Evans IFA to talk through the process, as a part of which, we will be happy to arrange an introductory personal meeting with a director of the company.

In the meantime, do visit their website at www.scdavies.com to learn more.
