read more ...Manning Financial have been advising me on various financial issues over the last 2 years both personally and within my business activities. Breon is totally dedicated to providing the very best service and advice in all aspects of the financial, and has proven time and time again to go well beyond the expected service of a typical financial adviser.Sean Murphy Private Client
Breon is an "Advisor" in every sense of that word. Unlike some financial advisors, he is not sales motivated. For someone like me in the "advice" business, it is a refreshing change to deal with someone not motivated by selling financial products which don't necessarily meet my needs. His proactive approach to financial planning has already put me in a much stronger position. With his help and advice, I hope to build upon this foundation so that my future is financially secure. I feel that he is someone I can completely trust, and therefore have no problem in recommending him to any friends or colleagues.David Collins Managing Director Cresco Accountants
In the years that Breon has been advising me on my financial affairs he has always been thoughtful and insightful with regard to my needs, rather than his own. His investment suggestions have been sensible and fair, and even in the current challenging conditions Breon has continued to be driven by a desire to serve my best interests, rather than just being a salesman.Catherine Griffin Barrister
