Mr and Mrs C from Suffolk
“We are in the fortunate situation of having substantial savings and a good ‘pension pot’. With our very risk averse attitude, low interest rates and cash bonds maturing we needed a sensible way to reinvest our funds. We’re very happy with the helpful and friendly service we receive from Suzanne and Matt, and of course Suzanne’s fellow director Adrian who reviews Pearson’s investment funds on a regular basis. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Pearson Wealth Management.”
-

“Mrs Sue Hodge has been our financial adviser for approximately 14 years. In that time, she has guided our financial lives excellently.
It has been her sensible, professional advice that has helped us to have a comfortable retirement.”

Mr and Mrs J from Holland on Sea
“When I retired in June 2011, I had a final salary pension as well as a small pension pot which I was advised I had to buy an annuity with but the rates were very low. My husband and I have been very pleased with the friendly financial advice that Suzanne & Matt have provided us over the last two years on behalf of Pearson Wealth Management and they are always willing to go over things that we do not understand.”
-

Twelve months on I continue to be reassured that I made the right decision. I also now have a better understanding of the world of finance and investments, thanks to Suzanne and don’t feel that the subject is no-go area for the novice.”
