5. Capstone Financial Group Client focused, integrity driven advice
Getting to know you, our client, allows
us to build trust and establish a long-
term relationship.
We want all your experiences with us to
be positive. That is why, from the very first
meeting, your adviser will clearly set out
what you can expect from us and how we
aim to help you.
Before providing any advice, we take the
time to learn more about your personal and
financial situation, as well as your future
goals. This is achieved by completing a
financial needs analysis, which is treated
with complete confidentiality.
It is only once we really understand your
situation and needs, that we will start
helping you implement an effective
investment and financial strategy.
Your relationship with us does not end at
the point you decide to invest, as we know
that it’s what happens afterwards that will
determine your future success and your
satisfaction with us.

Our Investment Philosophy
Our advisers will carry out regular reviews
of your portfolio. These provide the
opportunity to take account of any changes
in your circumstances and adjust your
investments so they continue to deliver the
desired balance between risk and return.
Lump Sum Investments or single
investments are a popular choice for those
who have accumulated capital on deposit
and wish to find a long-term home for their
money. Whether you are looking to invest
for income or for growth, we are able to
access the whole of the market for the most
appropriate investment solution.
Regular Investments are an effective way
of investing by allocating the funds to your
account on a monthly, quarterly or annual
basis. This allows you to allocate over
multiple market cycles and is an excellent
way to plan for the future.
Retirement planning plays a key part in
long-term financial strategies. Investing
today is crucial to being able to reach a
position of financial security in the future.
Alternatively, you might be looking at taking
an income from your pension, setting up a
corporate scheme or need help working out
any potential shortfalls. We’re here to help
whatever your individual needs.
Education fees are a large expense for many
families; by planning ahead and being
aware of the costs of giving your children
the best start, you can greatly reduce any
financial burden. We can guide you towards
investing a lump sum or regular amount to
cater for this need.
Offshore investment bonds are a life
assurance policy. They are treated
differently in tax terms from other
investments and can offer significant tax
savings if you already are or may be a UK
taxpayer in the future. As such, they can
be used to generate capital growth and
income that are both highly tax-efficient.
Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension
Schemes (QROPS) enable clients to
consolidate and transfer UK Pensions
offshore into a single structure. This gives
you greater control of your investment
and enables the simpler creation and
management of your investment portfolio.
We also offer specialised services in the
following areas:
• Inheritance Tax Planning and Mitigation
• Trust Formation
• Alternative Investments
• International Property
Investments - Investing in your future
Constructing a balanced
and diversified investment
portfolio is a complex task,
but one for which we are
ideally equipped.

Protection - Protecting your future
Protection encompasses a range of
insurance plans that provide cover
against critical illness, accident or
death. It is the foundation of economic
security and essential to all good
financial planning strategies.
We are ideally positioned to cut through
the vast range of protection products in the
market to identify the right options for you.
Our expertise covers:
Life Insurance. This form of protection is
designed to protect your family from the
financial implications of a personal tragedy
and is particularly pertinent if you have
young children. Whatever your situation,
we can help you set up a life assurance
plan that is tailored to provide the level of
cover you need at every stage of your life.
Critical Illness Cover. While life insurance
is the most popular form of protection,
statistics show that serious illness, such
as a heart attack or stroke, offers a greater
threat to a family’s standard of living.
Even if the individual affected can still
work afterwards, additional funds may be
needed to cope with any disability.
We can help you arrange cover for a set
list of illnesses, with payment in a lump
sum to reduce liabilities, pay for childcare
or structural alterations to your property
if needed. Arranging this type of cover
gives you time to come to terms with your
condition and decide what changes to
make to your life.
Income Protection. If you were unable to
work, would you still require an income to
cover your outgoings? Income Protection
protects the income of the main earner in
the event of long-term sickness or disability.
Key Person and Shareholders Insurance.
Most businesses are quick to insure their
assets, yet they commonly overlook key
members of the company and substantial
shareholders. Key Person insurance can
protect a business against the financial
implications arising from the death or
incapacity of executives, directors and
other key staff. You can protect yourself
against the exact nature of the loss, and
this extends to losses suffered by the
families of director-controlled enterprises.
In addition to Investments and Insurance,
we are also able to help with a wide range
of additional services, including:
• Mortgages
• Wills
• Medical Insurance and other General
Insurance solutions
