My clients include business owners, directors, senior management, legal professionals and City traders. All have individual and specific requirements and therefore the service I provide is bespoke to each client’s individual objectives and aspirations.
It is fundamental that I get to know my clients well - and they get to know me – so that we are able to work together and forge long-term relationships built on mutual trust and understanding.
About
Providing financial advice to clients is an area I feel passionate about, so much so that I gave up my profession as a certified accountant to be more focused and dedicated to the role. As such I have never looked back for the last 28 years as an adviser. My background is varied, being initially a tied adviser, moving on to work as a regional IFA for a leading bank, and then being given the exciting opportunity to be part of the launch and initial team of advisers at Saga financial planning (part of Saga Holidays).
My clients' often complex financial arrangements led to my last role as a private client consultant for a leading national IFA, and this has created a diversified mindset when engaging with clients. I pride myself on maintaining long term trusted relationships, creating a proactive service, with a no-nonsense honest approach, providing both private and business clients peace of mind.
Over the years I have developed my qualifications around the needs of my clients; as their age and wealth increase, the complexity of their financial arrangements expand, hence the need for specialist advice in areas such as tax-efficient investment planning, long term care planning, and trust* and estate planning.
An effective adviser is always there for their clients in both good and bad times; this often leads to referrals, and even appointment as the "family" adviser.

Rabeya has been advising my wife and I for over 10 years. We have greatly valued her helpful, caring and straightforward approach. She has been meticulous in her attention to details, and we have been grateful for her understanding of our circumstances. She has become a trusted adviser and I would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone.
John C. E. Lloyd | Retired Commander, Royal Navy, Northwood, Middlesex
We have received financial advice from Rabeya for well over a decade, from when we started planning ahead for old age. We have consistently received excellent, reliable and sensitive advice from Rabeya, who always remembers all our details. She has done very well for us over these difficult years. She is expert, delightful and tailors her advice to our needs, clearly explaining everything and acting promptly and efficiently on what we decide
Dr Lucy Gaster and Dr Nicholas Deakin | London
Rabeya has always put my interests first by giving sound and trustworthy advice. She quickly after a short discussion was able to identify my initial financial shortfalls. Rabeya understood my concerns about taxation, particularly being a medical professional. Everything we discussed was relevant and to the point. She made the meeting very relaxed and gave a clear concise explanation of concepts. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

Rabeya has been providing me with financial advice for nearly 10 years. I took early retirement/voluntary redundancy and needed advice on how to enhance my income whilst maintaining the value of my capital. I still have most of those investments in place and the income to date plus the current capital value far exceeds my original investments. We meet at least once a year to tweak my investments as necessary. Rabeya has always advised that I have a good mix of investments so that if there are problems with one type I should be ok with the others. She is very easy to talk to and explains things in a simple way and takes an interest in my family.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
Rabeya Islam has been our financial adviser for several years. Her efficiency, knowledge and professional approach have been matched only by her warm, pleasant manner.
