My WealthPartner Advice

Experienced advisers that understand PwC, your benefits, remuneration and the independence requirements

Access to a UK-wide team of dedicated, experienced financial planners that have a full understanding of PwC, your benefits and your independence requirements.

This service is suitable for any Partner, including those with an existing adviser.

The Advice service can provide one-off advice on a specific issue, or advice across all of your finances and investments as part of an ongoing relationship with your own financial adviser.

So, whether you need to establish a financial plan, you are at a stage where you would prefer a professional to advise on and manage your investments or you would value a second opinion on your existing finances and advisers, this service is right for you.

This service can be used alongside and in addition to the Online, Walled Garden and Bespoke services.

Benefits of the Advice service

  • Tailored - you can choose to review one area of your finances or everything – it’s up to you

  • Flexible – start it at any time, seek one-off advice as often as you need to including seeking it alongside the Online, Walled Garden and Bespoke services

  • For every life moment – for you, your partner and your dependants, advice on everything from cash flow modelling on entering the partnership, to school fee planning, helping children onto the property ladder, retirement planning, estate and legacy planning

  • PwC knowledge – you will meet with an experienced Close Brothers financial planner that understands PwC, Partners, your benefits and independence rules

  • Compliant - we work closely with PwC to make reporting easier for you by pre-clearing proposed investments directly with the Checkpoint Partner Support team on your behalf. Any changes we make to your investment portfolio will be automatically updated in your Checkpoint portfolio via the PwC AIR feed

We provide a holistic financial advice service to individuals. Our investment process is unbiased, multi-asset, actively managed and diversified across regions and sectors. Because we primarily promote our own investment products, we are classed as providing restricted advice. However, we can also recommend investment offerings from other firms, without bias, based on our disciplined research and analysis process.

Before you invest, make sure you feel comfortable with the level of risk you take. Investments aim to grow your money, but they might lose it too.
