Frequently Asked Questions
We know that choosing the right financial advisor is important and we believe that to be a successful partnership, we need to be a good fit. If you have any questions that aren’t covered below, or just want to talk to us to get a better idea of what we’re all about, please get in touch.
We’ll always spend time getting to know and understand you before we work together. We don’t believe in providing one size fits all packages (because they don’t) and all our recommendations are made specifically for you and your unique circumstances.
Where are your advisors based?
Are you regulated?
We are regulated by the Cyprus Securities & Exchange Commission (CySEC) and the Insurance Companies Control Service (ICCS) in Cyprus and, the Financial Services Commission in Gibraltar. This means that the investment advice we give is carefully controlled to minimise the risk to you.
Are you accountants and can you do my tax return
What happens if I decide I don’t want to work with you?
How much do you charge?
Our fees are transparent and will always be explained to you before we work together. We have several ways we receive payments for our services:
1. Fee based: an hourly rate charged for bespoke work.
2. A fee based as a percentage of the amount invested. This is either taken directly from your investment or you can pay us directly. We will always indicate how much this will be in our full report provided to you.
3. A fee paid to us directly from the company we have recommended. Rest assured we will recommend exactly the right product and company for you, and how much we get paid is not a priority for us, YOU ARE. We always disclose how much we receive and it is directly related to the amount of work involved.
Leggett has been very happy with the advice provided by Jennie Poate and Beacon to our clients and agents. As a family firm, being able to recommend trusted and professional advisors is vitally important to us
