Meet the Owner

A successful financial review and subsequent successful management of funds requires clients to be frank about their situation.  With this in mind we thought it would be courteous to provide a brief and frank introduction to the person behind the company, Nigel Reeves.

Nigel is a straight talking business man, who has built up the Reeves company from scratch over the past 20 years.

Nigel comes from a sporting background which has given him the drive to push his business forward.  He graduated in 1985 with a degree in Combined Studies (Psychology and Sports Science). This was followed up with a postgraduate masters degree in Business Management from Teesside Polytechnic.

His early work experience began in the field of sport, working initially for the local government and The Amateur Rowing Association. This latter role led him into the world of financial services, working with Guardian Financial Services as a trainee financial advisor. Nigel then worked his way to be a Senior Advisor and although achieving supervisory status, Nigel chose to stay at the customer facing end of the business rather than in management.

During this period, Nigel developed his knowledge led,  client focussed and non pushy advice based methods of providing financail solutions, which are still at the core of Reeves today.

In 1996, soon after working as an independent appointed representative of Guardian, Nigel realised the benefits of being an independent advisor rather than being tied to one particular company. It did not take long for clients to embrace the new world of whole market offering which gave them access to the best of products with the best of advice.

Whilst other advisors suffered from pension and endowment mis-selling scandals, Nigel was able to grow the practice without such distractions or issues. Time was spent achieving higher level qualifications including the Pension Retirement Options licence in 1998.

As the business grew, new advisors were recruited to assist with Nigel settling into the management of the business.

Upon completing a business review it was decided that a new structure was required to to stay ahead of the competition. The company changed from being a general practitioner to that of a specialist. Most clients had been with Nigel for many years and during this time had developed successful business and corporate careers. In turn the portfolios of clients had grown with ISA's, pensions and other investments and Nigel realised the offering had to change. Clients now required advice on how to look after what they had built up over the years and how to cement the growth in preparation for that retirement date that once felt so far away.

The service has successfully being implemented and now the specialist service is being enjoyed by financially successful clients throughout the UK.
