Martyn Cole
DipPFS, Certs CII (MP & ER)
I’ve worked as a Wealth Management adviser for more than 25 years, and believe wholeheartedly in providing face-to-face bespoke personal financial advice.
Away from the office, I’m a keen golfer and like to keep fit and healthy, whilst also studying for my Private Pilot’s Licence.
About
Based primarily in Somerset and Devon, I work in collaboration with individuals and businesses to assist them in making better financial decisions, whilst providing bespoke advice in order to achieve all long-term financial goals and aspirations.
My primary focus has always been on building close-knit relationships, with emphasis on the attention to detail.
I am a fully qualified member of the Society of Later Life Advisers, and also licensed to provide Final Salary Pension advice.
In my spare time, I enjoy keeping fit and healthy and can often be found on the golf course, when time allows.
