Liberty is well versed in the challenges that go hand-in-hand with wealth succession.
Our experience has shown that transferring wealth from one generation to the next can be a rewarding undertaking if it is well thought through and strategically managed. At Liberty, our initiative is to promotes discussions about money and family finances between the generations.

Consultation

We help our clients through the process via a series of discussions and face-to-face meetings.

Analysis & research

If you decide you wish to continue with the advice process, we will conduct a comprehensive review of your existing arrangements in line with your stated objectives. This may mean contacting existing product providers to establish the exact type of plan you have, its benefits, costs and objectives.

Recommendation & implementation

After completing thorough research, we will meet again to discuss our recommendations to support your current and future objectives.

Structuring & planning

Through structuring your wealth efficiently and planning how it will be distributed and retained as it passes down the generations, we are able to provide a bespoke strategy to fit your family’s ongoing needs.

Retaining a family legacy

Your hard work, ideas and vision will be acknowledged and consolidated to help future generations and loved ones.

Operating family governance

We will work with family members to help them plan ahead, whilst ensuring your agreed strategy for the future administration of your wealth and assets is clearly documented.

Philanthropy & family education

Ring-fencing cash to help with charitable projects close to your heart, school fees, university, or other investments that make a difference to your loved ones’ lives can be actioned into your planning.

Preparing the next generation

Communicating your wishes is at the core of our services and helping them make informed decisions for their own succession planning.

Frank & Jane Wolski - Liberty clients
“My wife and I have been taking financial advice from Liberty Wealth Management for a number of years and we are pleased to say our portfolio has been a profitable success. Over the years Lee has added younger members to his team that have been able to relate to people that are our son's age. This has given us the opportunity to introduce nephews, nieces, and friends to Liberty Wealth Management so they can also benefit from their financial advice. Sooner or later they will all receive a large inheritance so by receiving advice now regarding investments, Wills and Inheritance Tax they will be better prepared for the future. Dealing with Lee and his team has always been a pleasure and we fully recommend his team’s advice to whoever needs financial reassurance.”
Brian & Maureen Harvey - Liberty clients
“We have been very satisfied with the service received from Liberty over the years. Keeping our wealth in the family is very important to us so we are particularly pleased that one of our sons and two of our grandchildren are now also benefitting from the Liberty approach. The continuity of providing advice down through the generations is very important to us.”

“We have found Chris Webb to be highly personable and very professional, and his knowledge and sound judgement give us complete peace of mind.”

Growing wealth

Investing your hard-earned wealth involves an important discussion and consultation process with one of our qualified advisers. We will assess your finances, agree your short, medium and long-term goals and then invest accordingly.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.

Creating wealth

Depending on your age and life-stage, creating wealth can look different. However, the sooner you start saving the better. You may want to pass money onto your children or even start a savings plan for a grandchild, it is never too soon to start tucking a little away.

Preserving wealth

Every client’s situation will be unique, however, there are a number of areas we will need review at to protect your hard-earned assets such as a well written Will, understanding any Tax liabilities such as Inheritance Tax.

Will writing involves the referral to a service that is separate and distinct to those offered by St. James's Place. Wills are not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

Other services

We have the in-house expertise and access to professional specialists to support you in your wider financial planning needs, from trusts and tax advice to portfolio management services.
