About us

We were originally set up by Peter Manikam who was a Founder Partner with St. James's Place in Dec 1991. Since then the Practice has grown and became a Limited company in 2008. Currently Peter’s son Richard Manikam continues to run the Practice and the Practice continues as a family run financial planning business. We have a wealth of experience and resources to hand, along with the administration and client care support to provide a professional and long term relationship to our clients.
