“I have been very happy with the support and advice I have received…”
“Over the last 6 months I have been supported by Henderson Stone Asset Management to transfer from my defined benefit pension to a private pension. As this is a significant change I have been grateful for the time they have taken to really understand my motivations for the change and to make sure that I fully understood the pros and cons to a level of detail that allowed me to make an informed decision. The transparency of what would happen and the clarity around costs and what you were getting for your money was a refreshing change from some of the other firms I had approached prior to selecting HSAM. I have been very happy with the support and advice I have received…”
Mr I McC, Stirling
“Clear and concise advice and all worked out as they said it would…”
“We wanted ideas on Inheritance Tax and Sam Henderson was very helpful in going through the options. We finally went with equity release which allowed us to free up some money for the children without diluting our cash position and free of tax transfers. HSAM were very efficient in identifying the most suitable company to deal with and in obtaining the very lowest interest rates. Clear and concise advice and all worked out as they said it would. Sam also helped park cash until Christmas in a range of bank accounts with higher interest than the norm. All went like clockwork. Thanks so much.”
Mr A.P., Hampshire

The Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate taxation planning, trusts, estate planning, commercial mortgages, and most buy to let mortgages.
Tax treatment varies according to individual circumstances and is subject to change.
The value of an investment can fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you have invested.
If you take your entire pension fund early you could be financially worse off in the future.
Your home maybe repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage. There may be a fee for mortgage advice, the precise amount of the fee will depend upon your circumstances but we estimate it will be £500.00
