Client Testimonials

My wife and I had been looking for a truly independent advisor to work with for several years but, as mixed-origin expats in Switzerland, we'd struggled to find someone who was both independent and understood our situation - until we became aware of David on LinkedIn. As a result, we recently worked with David on a full retirement planning analysis. We are very happy we made this decision. The process was smooth and insightful. We really learned a lot about how our family's future will, or could, look. David is highly knowledgeable, friendly and professional. We have already recommended his services to two friends and will happily continue to do so.

Last year was highly stressful for me: my retirement date in Switzerland was approaching, I was moving to Spain and I had no plan for retirement or investment of my money. My previous experience with an investment fund was horrible and therefore my goal was to have peace of mind in the future. I attended multiple lectures to understand the complexities of the pension system in Switzerland, specially the strategies for the second pillar. All of them increased my confusion. Then I very much relied on the advice from my colleagues, but I eventually felt that I needed a strategy just for me. That's when a colleague I greatly respect recommended David to me; and then there was light. Through virtual and in person meetings, David patiently explained to me the options based on a personalised analysis and I ended up with a retirement and investment plan aligned with my objectives and risk tolerance. During my interactions with David, I have never felt pressured to make decisions or embarrassed by my ignorance in financial matters. On top of his professionalism and knowledge, David has human warmth and transmits confidence and trust. Thanks to David, I am now enjoying a comfortable and financially secure retirement in Spain. I found the needle in the haystack!

David has been my financial advisor for the last 12 months and I could not be happier with the service. He has assisted me with my pension and retirement planning as well as investment strategies. I really appreciate the way David wants to get to know his clients to set up a personalised investment plan that is right for them. He seeks to understand appetite for risk and personal goals and then presents options in a clear understandable way with no hard sell. I really appreciated the complimentary introduction meetings so could get to know what was on offer before parting with any money. If you are looking for a financial planner, I would highly recommend getting in contact with David.

I recently had the pleasure of working with David and I couldn't be more impressed with the experience. As someone keen on optimising my investment strategy, finding the right independent financial advisor was critical to the next 5 years to maximise the potential for compound growth. From the outset, David exhibited a deep understanding of the financial landscape both in Switzerland as well as Internationally, coupled with a genuine desire to comprehend my specific goals and risk tolerance. His approach was refreshingly neutral, devoid of any ulterior motives or affiliations with other financial institutions. This transparency was a breath of fresh air in an industry often plagued by hidden agendas. David conducted a thorough health check of my existing investment portfolio, pinpointing areas of potential improvement and highlighting new opportunities to consider for diversification, as well as a few tax optimisation hacks. Throughout our interactions, David's approachability and willingness to listen stood out. He wasn't just a financial advisor; he was a trusted partner, someone with whom I could bounce ideas and discuss strategies confidently. I wholeheartedly recommend David to anyone seeking financial guidance, whether they're just embarking on their investment journey now or seeking a seasoned perspective. His expertise, integrity, and dedication to his clients make him a standout choice.

After a lot of consideration of a number of IFAs, I started working with David ca January 2021. I have never been disappointed by his knowledge or professionalism and I committed to one of his well researched recommendations recently. I noticed that he always gave me his best advice, according to my needs, even though it would significantly diminish his "cut". From my experiences so far, I have no reservations in giving him a full endorsement.

Helena Fernandes, Institut auf dem Rosenberg

David and I met a few years back, when we were at different stages of our lives and careers. I was not ready to do changes in my investment strategy. David showed understanding, did not push me. On the opposite: he made me feel comfortable with my decisions and helped me focus on a few priorities. Last year I reconnected with David and this had a profound impact on my perception of financial planning and investments. David is a professional with a personal touch, knowledgeable and most importantly, a pragmatist. He explains concepts in simple terms, provides customized solutions and has patience to repeat, clarify and bring new information as necessary. David was instrumental in setting up part of my retirement portfolio. He met my expectations in terms of transparency and simplicity. I would recommend David to anyone who is willing to learn and act!
