Financial Planning & Advice
Our Financial Planning & Advice Service is a flexible, advice-led service for direct clients. It can be used for a one-off piece of advice, a defined planning project, an ongoing planning and review relationship, or advisory investment recommendations.
Whether you are considering retirement options, reviewing or consolidating pensions, improving tax efficiency, protecting your family’s future, or planning your estate, this service is designed to give you clear, professional advice at the points in life when it matters most.

Financial Planning Service
Advice first, with clear next steps
This service is designed for clients whose immediate priority is advice, planning, review, implementation support or a specific recommendation. It may be appropriate whether you want a defined piece of work, such as retirement planning, pension or account consolidation, tax-wrapper planning, protection planning or estate planning, or an advisory investment arrangement, or an ongoing advisory relationship without discretionary investment management being the default service model.
Unlike our discretionary services, this service does not involve us acting as your default discretionary investment manager unless a separate discretionary mandate is put in place. Where investment advice forms part of the service, we present our recommendations clearly, with the key costs, risks and considerations set out, and you decide whether and how to proceed.
Why choose Tacit?
Real Relationships. Real Returns.
Preserving and increasing the real value of your wealth over the long-term is our aim.
When it comes to investing, we think in market cycles, not just quarters. We always take a long-term view.
Tacit was founded by seasoned investment professionals who believe that wealth management should be personal, disciplined, and clearly aligned with client outcomes. Our service is grounded in long-term relationships, many spanning generations, and our aim is to be a constant, trusted adviser in a changing world.
How the service works
Advice, Planning and Support at Every Step
Your Tacit adviser will meet with you to understand your goals, circumstances and the scope of advice you are looking for, this initial meeting is free of charge. If you choose to become a client, we then research your options, review any existing arrangements where relevant, and prepare our recommendations.
You will receive a clear, written advice report setting out our conclusions, along with the relevant risks, costs and implementation steps. If you choose to proceed, we support you through the practical steps needed to put the agreed advice in place, and where an ongoing relationship is agreed, we provide continuing planning, review and support.
