I needed advice as I wanted to transfer an occupational pension into a personal pension scheme, in light of the recent change in pension legislation. I was approaching an early retirement deadline and it is necessary to get advice before my work scheme would enact any transfer.
Pete Miller understood my needs and spoke extensively with me before even offering or suggesting any particular course of action, in fact he was initially more cautious than me in what I wanted to achieve. He explained things in a way I understood, even allowing for the fact that I felt I was pretty knowledgeable in the matter. Based on my attitude to risk which was carefully measured, he produced a comprehensive report on investment choices and recommendations.
I have the outcome I was hoping for, especially given the tight deadline that was involved. I have full documentation of what was discussed and agreed. I have a modest sum of money available to me whilst having my pension pot invested in areas I am happy with. There were other unforeseen benefits I realised, only after having Pete Miller's advice. I can monitor online how my investments are doing will have ongoing reviews with my adviser in the future. A good start so far.
I felt my adviser calmly shared all the facts I needed, even when I asked several times about a topic I didn't quite follow first time out. I can't think of any thing he could have done better.
