Testimonials

“My wife and I were quite disillusioned with the financial advisors appointed to us by the investment institute that we had entrusted with our wealth management, until Luke was appointed to look after our portfolio. He invoked our confidence and trust right from the word ‘go’. We had already dealt with half a dozen advisors prior to getting in touch with Luke, and we never saw our investments grow as promised or to our satisfaction. In fact, we were disappointed with the loss in our savings. Luke came across as an experienced financial professional, who not only lent a patient ear to our concerns, but also calmed our anxieties down by offering a well-structured plan of action that would plug our losses and turn around the game in our favour. He delivered what he promised. We had found THE wealth manager in Luke that we were always looking for, and therefore, decided to be with Luke, no matter which financial institute he represented or worked with. Luke communicates and engages with his clients in a very proactive manner by directly addressing the concerns and offering viable solutions and suggestions for a future course of action. His financial foresight and prowess of knowledge enables him to provide tailor-made solutions for individual clients. He takes care of his clients’ accounts personally and takes timely actions effectively. He schedules review meetings regularly and communicates openly. Luke is an asset as a financial advisor. If you need to protect your wealth and make it grow, please engage Luke as your financial advisor! Thank you, Luke!” – Kai J Christiansen
