Alexander Fardini
MBA, FPFS
As a Chartered Financial Planner, Fellow of the Personal Finance Society and Senior Partner of St. James's Place, I specialise in advising successful professionals, senior executives, entrepreneurs and high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth families on the growth, preservation and transfer of their wealth.
With more than 21 years of experience in financial planning, I provide bespoke advice across a wide range of areas including investment planning, retirement planning, inheritance tax mitigation, trust planning and wealth protection. I am particularly valued by clients for my expertise in tax-efficient wealth structuring and long-term financial planning.
My approach is highly personal and centred around helping clients make informed financial decisions with confidence. Through a tailored Personal Wealth Report, I work closely with clients to develop clear, coordinated strategies that align their wealth with their long-term objectives.
This typically includes:
• Creating comprehensive financial plans that identify short, medium and long-term goals and establish the cashflow required to achieve them.
• Investment planning for growth and income, helping clients understand their capacity for risk and ensuring their investment portfolios are structured appropriately for their objectives and circumstances.
• Structuring assets in a tax-efficient manner to help minimise unnecessary tax liabilities.
• Retirement planning to help clients achieve financial independence and maintain their desired lifestyle throughout retirement.
• Estate, trust and inheritance tax planning to facilitate the efficient transfer of wealth between generations and protect beneficiaries from avoidable tax exposure.
I believe that successful financial planning extends far beyond investments alone. My role is to provide clarity, structure and ongoing guidance across all aspects of a client's financial affairs, helping them navigate complex decisions and adapt to changing circumstances over time.
Many of my client relationships span decades, reflecting my commitment to providing trusted advice and building long-term partnerships. My objective is to become the first person my clients turn to when making important financial decisions, helping them look to the future with confidence, clarity and peace of mind.
The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds selected and may fall as well as rise. You may get back less than you invested.
The levels and bases of taxation, and reliefs from taxation, can change at any time. The value of any tax relief depends on individual circumstances.
