WHO WE ARE

We’re challenging the status-quo.

We’re a marriage of past and present. Forward-thinking and innovative, but acknowledging our industry’s history.

We’re the first Expat Financial Adviser to charge a flat-fee, regardless of your background, circumstances or wealth.

All our clients pay the same transparent, fixed fee for our services, eliminating any conflicts of interest that arise from commissions or hidden charges.

Our entirely independent status enables us to access an unrivalled range of investment options and financial products from various providers.

This freedom allows us to deliver the most bespoke solutions for our clients, without being limited to in-house offerings or predetermined choices.

We strongly believe that this unbiased approach, coupled with our expertise and experience, empowers us to provide you with the highest quality financial advice.

Genesis [γένεσις] noun: the origin or mode of creation of something.

  • The Wealth Genesis is fully regulated to provide investment and insurance advice across all EU member states.

    We also hold an unrestricted investment license in Mauritius, which allows us to service clients outside of the EU.

    All license numbers and information can be found in our footer.

  • The work we do for a pension transfer or setting up an investment account does not change with the size of the investment, so we feel it’s right to charge all our clients the same initial fee - £3,000.

    We’re passionate about providing value to our clients, which is also reflected in our industry leading annual management fee.

  • We never directly handle client money.

    All investments are held with FCA regulated custodians with billions under management, which are also fully covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) in the UK

    Wealth without security loses it’s meaning. That’s why we operate several layers of protection for all our clients to ensure assets are protected to the highest degree.

  • The partners of the Wealth Genesis have over 75 years experience of advising clients between them.

    Every adviser is UK qualified to provide investment and pension advice.

    All members of our advice team hold additional qualifications around the world.

  • Managing your finances in a foreign country can be complex due to differences in regulations, tax systems, and investment options.

    A specialist expat financial adviser can play a vital role in ensuring your investments and retirement accounts are in the right places for your country of residence.

  • The Wealth Genesis provides holistic and bespoke financial advice to expats around the world.

    This includes all types of investment accounts and international retirement planning.

After all, it’s your wealth, not ours.
