Employee Testimonial from IFA, Andrew Taylor:
-
Why did you join Grosvenor Wealth Management?
Grosvenor Wealth Management stood out for a variety of reasons. It has wonderful back story, I love the fact it has a London based heritage, its client first approach, the fact the company is still standing tall as an independent firm after 25 years, which is remarkable. The fact some of the clients with us now have been there since day one, and now we look after their children and help them on their own journey. The company is brilliant at maintaining long term relationships and providing guidance, coaching and expert advice to all who need it.

What do you most enjoy about working at Grosvenor Wealth Management?
The company structure is superb, with Grade A support across the board, from marketing expertise, in-house compliance and technical assistance, an experienced and knowledgeable Investment Committee, all there to support our clients and staff on their journey.

How have you found your Grosvenor experience so far?
Grosvenor is an extremely compassionate company, who are so supportive of their staff. Alas, I have had two life altering events happen during my tenure with the firm so far (hopefully no more for the foreseeable), and I just felt that the company, and, more importantly, my wonderful co-workers, offered the right level of support, guidance, care and friendship when it was needed.
This is also the first time in my career that I have felt comfortable enough to bring my family and closest friends on-board as clients, as I know I will be here for long time, and my nearest and dearest will be looked after properly by all at Grosvenor Wealth Management.
Employee Engagement
Our Responsible Practice
GWM has been around for over two decades. We uphold the highest standards in data security and combating financial crime. Compliance is at the heart of everything we do. All of our advisers are fully qualified, experienced and actively maintain competency through structured CPD program.
Customer service will always be important to Grosvenor Wealth Management.
It’s our aim to make sure that our new & existing clients and business partners have the best possible experiences with our dedicated team of Financial Advisers, Analysts and Administrators.
Our employees strive to make sure that we’re professional and welcoming and we have always maintained positive relationships with our client and business partners.
However, we know that sometimes things don’t always go to plan, so on these occasions, we do our utmost to make sure that we put things right, with a structured approach to resolving client issues and providing remediation where appropriate.
The value of investments can fall and you may get back less than you invested. Tax treatment depends on the individual circumstances of each client and may be subject to change in the future.

ESG Investing
Traditional investing delivers value by translating investor capital into investment opportunities that carry risks commensurate with expected returns. Sustainable investing balances traditional investing with environmental, social, and governance related (ESG) insights to improve long-term outcomes.
In many ways, sustainable investing can be seen as part of the evolution of investing. There is a growing recognition among industry participants that some ESG factors are economic factors, especially in the long term, and it is, therefore, important to incorporate material ESG factors.
On the surface the introduction of ESG is reflective of the planet’s precarious position. Our clients may also be encouraged by the proposition that their money is being invested in ethical enterprises which have a stake in the environmental issues.
We also believe that ESG will become an increasingly important determinant of value, as the principles of ESG lay the foundations for long term commercial sustainability. We think that ESG will continue to evolve, and this evolution will add greater transparency, improve comparability, and ensure organisations that adopt ESG at a cultural level are recognised for doing so.
If you would like to understand more about the ethical enterprises we invest in and how we deliver investment support, email us at marketing@gwmfs.co.uk, or call one of our offices to speak directly with an adviser.
How We Support Clients
Support the Community
Grosvenor are very passionate about giving back to the local community. We enjoy getting involved, donating and supporting with local charities as well as larger national charitable organisations.
Over the years, Grosvenor Wealth Management have been supporting a local Hertfordshire charity, DENS. Established in 2003, Dacorum-based charity, DENS, aims to be the first port of call for people facing homelessness, poverty, and social exclusion. They ensure people have access to immediate support, and many other vital provisions as well as providing comprehensive solutions to move towards independent living.
As an official business partner, we strive to promote the charity, their amazing work among the local community and look to how we can further support them in their efforts to tackle homelessness, poverty, and social exclusion in the borough.
We are increasing our support for the DENS team. We promote DENS communications and events through the Grosvenor website and social media, to ensure their visibility and brand is maximised through all relevant channels.
At Grosvenor, we also love a good challenge, especially if it can raise money for a charity, whether it be a charity swim, cycle or running event. So, whenever one of our staff is preparing to take on a challenge, we’ll encourage them to set up a fundraising page and donate the proceeds to charity.
Partnering with like-minded Businesses
Professional Connections works with a variety of different businesses, such as accountants, solicitors, recruiters and estate agents, to provide a holistic approach to complement and enhance their own services. Equally, we look to introduce our clients to our partners if they need support outside of our remit.
We work collectively to ensure the outcome is fully connected and centred around the clients’ needs and ensure that their expectations are met.
If you would like to find out more about how Professional Connections can work alongside your business and client network, please click here to book an appointment with one of our Financial Advisers.
If you would like to speak to one of our Financial Advisers about any points we have raised above or would simply like to understand more about how we can work with you, we offer free initial financial consultations. Simply contact us on 020 3030 4141 or request a call back for a no obligation consultation.
