Much of the industry is still built on selling financial products and generating commissions rather than providing advice that is impartial and independent. Hence, we believe the prevailing remuneration model in our industry is outdated. It revolves around chasing assets under management and then charging a ‘fee’ tied to the value of those assets, which lacks a direct correlation to the quality of advice or level of service provided. Consequently, quality and specialized advice become accessible only to a select few.
The Henceforward approach utilizes a simple service-led fee model, determined at the outset of the relationship, which directly correlates to the level of service and advice provided. We aim to foster an unbiased and impartial, relationship-driven approach, ensuring that we always act in your best interests and do what’s right for you, free from any conflicts of interest.
