Professional and Helpful
Cannot recommend highly enough and consider A.R.D. Consultancy Limited to be the most professional and helpful service we have dealt with. They assisted our understanding throughout a time of review of our past and present financial situation, offering us realistic options and choice on how we could achieve an improved position in the future.
First Class
First venture into investing and glad I chose A.R.D. I thought the approach and working environment were first class. Seems like a really good core team and felt I was in safe hands. They were able to answer all my queries and provide all the information I needed in a timely manner. Hands on approach was well received and I look forward to seeing how the investments pan out.
Extremely Knowledgeable
Having ignored financial planning for far too long, I am delighted to have been introduced to the A.R.D. team. Consultation so far has been friendly and jargon free and I already feel more confident in preparing for the future. I look forward to working through the process with staff who are clearly extremely knowledgeable and have been reassured that it’s never too late to take control. Feeling in very safe hands.
