Our Approach
to Financial Planning

At Melville Independent we know that wealth management means different things to different people. By gaining a deeper understanding of your individual needs we are able to offer a comprehensive and personal approach to managing your wealth.

The first stage of Melville Investment Solutions is to establish your individual attitude to risk (ATR). We utilise a bespoke solution created by a market leading assessment firm using their online system that helps to uncover your ATR using an easy-to-use question-and-answer based assessment.

The results of the risk analysis will highlight the types of investments that match your profile. At this stage you can select from our range of Portfolio Manager Funds:

  • Cautious 

  • Moderately Cautious 

  • Moderate

  • Moderately Adventurous 

  • Adventurous

Each of these is managed by Multi-Manager Investment Teams, who have a wealth of experience running multi-manager funds. As you would expect from a leading Independent Financial Adviser, these managers have been sourced from the very best available in the marketplace.

If required, the agreed investment can then be placed into a range of different tax wrappers including an Individual Saving Account (ISA) or Self Invested Personal Pension (SIPP). You can also opt to invest directly or via a life investment bond.

It doesn’t stop there. Melville Investment Solutions also provides you with a range of useful tools to monitor and track your investment. We’ll also make available regular reports to ensure you are kept up-to-date on your investment’s progress.

Very professional approach but kept it straightforward.

I have had a really successful series of interactions with Derek which were always professional, personable and delivered in a way which allowed a clear understanding of what was being discussed, the options available and made decision making much easier than I had anticipated. His knowledge made me very comfortable that I had all the information required to make an informed choice.
