What we do

We cover all the areas you'd expect us to as part of delivering lifestyle financial planning:

Pensions and retirement planning, investments and tax advantaged vehicles, later life and estate planning, corporate planning, mortgages and protection.

The process we follow

Every client has a unique and varied range of financial needs. Finding out about you and establishing your priorities are the first step to creating a meaningful and relevant plan. Once your plan has been implemented, we will have regular forward planning meetings throughout your lifetime to make sure you are on track to meet your financial goals.

  • All about you
  • Analyse your position
  • Strategy presentation
  • Implementation
  • Forward planning

All about you

We need to understand you, your goals and priorties.

  • What's important to you?
  • Where are you now?
  • Where do you want to be in the future?

After understanding you and your circumstances we'll get a snapshot of your financial position. This will include details about your current income, expenditure, policies, accounts and any other relevant information.

We also need to understand attitude to investment risk and your ability to withstand losses without a material impact on your standard of living.

Analyse your position

Ensuring everything is aligned to your goals, we identify any gaps to fill, or improvements to be made in your financial planning. Essentially, how do you get from where you are now, to where you want to be?

This involves detailed analysis of your existing plans and policies, along with identifying opportunities to enhance your wealth.

Strategy presentation

We prepare a personalised report of recommendations and set out strategies to get you to where you want to be.

We'll then talk you through our recommendations and answer any questions you have. You'll also get a detailed report, including the rationale for the recommendations and how they meet your needs. 

Implementation

We agree on the plan and implement the strategy to help you achieve your financial objectives over a set period of time.

We'll take care of all the paperwork, liaise with providers and generally get stuff done - so you don't need to!

Forward planning

Things change. We'll have regular forward planning meetings to assess your strategy and implement any actions needed to keep your financial plan on track.

"His knowledge of the financial industry is second to none."

Paul and his team have been fantastic in helping us achieve early retirement with no stress or worries. Paul is always at the end of the phone and always has the answer to our questions. His knowledge of the financial industry is second to none. Incredible service and support, would highly recommend.

"Friendly, compassionate and objective."

Paul has consistently and with complete customer focus given friendly, compassionate and objective professional advice/services to our family over the years. During life’s ups and downs and in the face of risks and opportunities, Paul has helped us plan and make important financial decisions with increasing confidence and we trust him completely. 

The expansion of his team and online services has given us assurance to learn and evaluate how our financial portfolio has performed. We feel more in control about our present and more certain about our family’s financial future, thanks to Paul and the DSNY team.

"I’m in a position where my finances are clear and understood."

Like everyone, I lead a very busy life, but having met Paul who is straight talking, professional and personable, I’m in a position where my finances are clear and understood, which enables me to make significant life choices, with peace of mind for me and my family.

"Thanks to Paul, I have financial security."

I’ve spent most of my life in Operations in financial services. When I needed to get my finances in order, Paul was the person I went to, that was nearly 15 years ago. When my husband died 3.5 years ago, Paul made sure that financially I was going to be ok which at that difficult time was exactly what I needed.

He is extremely knowledgeable and approachable and keeps up to date with the all financial services news. I trust Paul completely and when we have our reviews he explains things simply to me as the world of FS can be very complex.  

The best thing I can say about Paul and his team are that they guide me through the maze of financial services in a calm and easy way. Paul worked with me to understand what my financial goals looked like in the future and thanks to him I have financial security.
