Lowes Magazine Issue 130
INSIDE TRACK
How to become a Lowes client As this magazine goes out to Lowes clients, we are preaching to the converted. But we know there are very many people around the country who could and would benefit from speaking to a Lowes adviser about their personal finances. We live in an unpredictable world – the past four years have vividly proved that to us all – and having someone in your corner when it comes to long term investment, saving and building wealth for your retirement, as well as passing wealth to the next generation, can deliver invaluable peace of mind. Over the years we have heard questionable arguments against using a financial adviser. Often people think it is only for the super wealthy but as tax, legislation and market changes make our personal finances ever more
complex, getting the right advice is essential for anyone building their wealth. Cost is also raised as an issue, but a carefully, professionally planned investment, saving and tax plan can easily save the cost of advice over the years. And what value do you place on the peace of mind that your financial affairs are being properly looked after? Once introduced people find it’s easy to do business with us. No matter which way a client wants to access our services – face-to-face, phone, video call – we are here to make things as smooth as possible. If you know of friends or family who could benefit from our services, we would be grateful for an introduction. They can get in touch on 0191 281 8811 and we will arrange for an adviser to have a conversation with them.
