Manchester Office
Some intro text here only showing in homepage mode.
The Charles Stanley Manchester office is made up of a highly experienced team of investment professionals working to provide clients with a truly bespoke investment management service. When we meet a client for the first time, we start with a blank piece of paper because no two clients are the same. We take the time to get to know the client and assess exactly what their requirements are. Only then do we start the process of choosing the right solutions for them.
We currently look after private clients, trustees of charities, solicitors, accountants and financial advisers. As well as investment management, we also have expertise in SIPPs and stocks and shares ISAs and a dedicated Financial Planning service for advice in areas such as retirement planning, Inheritance Tax planning and cash-flow modelling.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Charles Stanley Manchester office.
