Our process

This is what you can expect when you work with us:

Meet

We set up a meeting, either face to face, by video conferencing or phone call (your choice) to discuss your situation in more detail – free of charge. We find out about your goals and objectives, understand your assets and liabilities, and complete a fact find. We will also discuss and agree the relevant fees.

Plan

Our adviser does their research and prepares some initial thoughts and suggestions for further discussion. Following that and any updates or tweaks you may wish to make, we will agree on a financial plan and what the next steps are.

Do

We will implement the plan we have agreed with you by completing all the paperwork and putting things into action.

Review

We regularly review your investment plan and all our portfolios, and you will have an annual review with your adviser. This can be face to face, by video or phone call, whichever you prefer. We prepare and issue annual valuations and performance reports as part of this review.

The Plutus Investment Committee

The Plutus Investment Committee (PIC) is at the heart of how we operate. Its purpose is to:
Screen all investment options
Products and funds that we already work with are reviewed regularly to ensure they are still suitable. New options are reviewed as they come on to the market to determine if they are a good fit for our clients’ needs.
Keep up to date with market developments
Daily fluctuations, unexpected incidents and world events can lead to changes in the market. In turn, these may affect investments or result in policy and regulatory changes. By tracking the market, we can act quickly when needed to keep our clients’ portfolios poised to deliver results.
Talk to fund managers
We liaise closely with fund managers, something that is managed by the PIC. This keeps us abreast of changes and ready to act on behalf of our clients where necessary.
Inform
We issue PIC Reports to our clients when there are market changes – positive or negative ones. They explain what they are, why they happen and what we could expect in the future. Where appropriate, the reports set out proposed changes for our model portfolio holders.

Sebastian has been absolutely brilliant. He made the whole process extremely easy. Got both my pension pots transferred and re-invested with a minimum of fuss. He explained really simply what the options were, and helped me decide on the best way forward. I see him once a year for a discussion & update, and has recommended really good investment solutions. He takes the time to understand your needs, and is always there if you need to discuss things.
