THE AMG WEALTH ADVANTAGE

Frequently asked questions about wealth management

At what point do you need a wealth manager?

A wealth manager becomes valuable when your finances start to grow in complexity. This can happen when you own multiple properties, manage a large investment portfolio, receive an inheritance, or are planning for retirement. Having expert guidance early can help protect your assets and keep your plans on track.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds selected and may fall as well as rise. You may get back less than the amount invested.

Is a financial adviser the same as a wealth manager?

While both offer financial guidance, a financial adviser focuses on specific areas like retirement, savings, and investments. A wealth manager takes a more holistic approach such as financial advice, investment management, tax planning, and estate planning to create a complete strategy.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds selected and may fall as well as rise. You may get back less than the amount invested.

How much money do I need to hire a wealth manager?

There is no fixed rule, but many firms work with clients who have £200,000 or more in investable assets. Others specialise in higher-net-worth portfolios. The key is finding a firm whose services and fee structure fit your goals.

Do wealth managers invest your money?

Yes. Part of a wealth manager’s role is to design and manage an investment portfolio that reflects your objectives and risk profile. They monitor performance and make adjustments as markets and personal circumstances change.

Is wealth management only for the rich?

No. While high-net-worth individuals often use wealth management services, many people benefit from tailored advice to help grow and protect pensions, savings, and investments.

At what net worth should I get a financial adviser?

Many people seek advice once they have over £100,000 in investable assets. More importantly, you should consider speaking to an adviser if your financial situation feels difficult to manage alone or you are making big decisions that will affect your future.

What questions should you ask your wealth manager?

Ask about qualifications, experience, how they invest, and how fees work. It is also important to understand how they will adapt advice to your personal circumstances and goals.

When to speak to a wealth manager?

You should consider speaking to a wealth manager when you are buying or selling property, receiving an inheritance, starting or selling a business, or preparing for retirement. These are times when financial decisions have long-term consequences.

How do I pick a wealth management company?

Choose a company with a strong track record, transparent fees, and services that match your needs. Client testimonials and the ability to meet in person can be good indicators of trust and service quality.

How often should your financial adviser contact you?

A formal review once a year is common, but they should also reach out if there are changes in your situation or significant movements in the markets that could impact your plan.

Should I tell my financial adviser everything?

Yes. Being open about your finances, goals, and concerns allows your adviser to give the most accurate and effective advice. Leaving out details could limit the value you get.

Do I really need a financial adviser when I retire?

Yes. Retirement is when structured advice can be most beneficial, helping you to draw income efficiently, and protect your assets, while aiming for your money to last for the rest of your life.

Is there a difference between a financial adviser and a retirement adviser?

A retirement adviser focuses on planning and managing your finances during retirement, while a financial adviser covers a wider range of topics including invetment planning, tax planning, and estate planning.

Is it worth paying a financial adviser to manage a pension?

Yes. Professional pension management can help you minimise tax, control risk, and keep investments aligned with your long-term objectives.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds selected and may fall as well as rise. You may get back less than the amount invested.

Can you leave a financial adviser whenever you want?

In most cases, you can, although you should check your agreement for notice periods or any exit fees. Switching is straightforward if you find another adviser who better meets your needs. In any situation, you should be prepared to invest over a minimum 5-year period.

see what our clients say about us

I have really appreciated and value the advice Phil has given to me and my family to ensure that we prepare for retirement safely. He has taken the time to understand our family and what is important to us providing simple explanations to breakdown some of the complexities involved.

I am happy to say that our family has worked with Gary for over 11 years. Initially, we discussed financial planning and ISA's and that's where we first hit it off. Gary is very easy to work with and explains the options very well. Would I recommend Gary? Absolutely! In fact, we have recommended Gary and AMG to many others already.

We like the fact that Phil and AMG are close to us and are on hand whenever we need advice or guidance. We have used AMG as they have always done what they have said they would do and more. Having the regular reviews is of great benefit to keep us up to speed of our investments and the wider economic environment.
