Investment management built around your goals
Effective investment management starts with a clear strategy, an appropriate level of risk, and a focus on how your investments support your wider financial plans. Our investment management service forms part of your overall financial planning, ensuring your investments are managed in line with your long-term objectives rather than in isolation.
Clients are supported by a highly qualified investment team with experience across both portfolio management and financial planning. We offer investment management on either an advisory or discretionary basis:
- Advisory Management means we work closely with you to provide ongoing investment advice and recommendations, while you retain control over the final investment decisions.
- Discretionary Management means your portfolio is managed on your behalf by an investment manager, who can make day-to-day investment decisions within an agreed strategy and risk profile, without needing to seek your approval each time. If suitable for you, we can offer this through our in-house Discretionary Investment Management (DIM) service, rather than through a third party, meaning clients will be speaking directly with the professionals involved in managing their portfolios and making investment decisions. Learn more about Discretionary Investment Management.
Both approaches provide ongoing professional oversight and regular reviews. Our advisers will explain the differences in more detail during initial meetings and help determine which approach is most suitable for your circumstances and preferences.
How we manage your investments
Our approach includes:
- Understanding your wider financial position
- Establishing an appropriate investment strategy
- Managing investment risk in line with your objectives
- Regularly reviewing and adjusting portfolios within the parameters of our ongoing service arrangement where required
Our investment decisions are overseen by an experienced in-house investment committee, which includes:
- Our own Chartered Wealth Managers and highly qualified advisers, including individuals with industry-specific PhDs and specialist discretionary investment management qualifications.
- External investment specialists with advanced academic and market expertise.
Our focus as your investment manager will be on maintaining a disciplined investment approach designed to support your long-term financial goals, not on reacting to short-term market movements.

Andrew had been a client for a number of years following his divorce. He had built up a substantial portfolio of pensions and investments and, as his circumstances settled, his focus began to shift towards how his wealth would be passed on to his two children.

Reviewing Wills and Structuring an Estate Efficiently
David and Helen had been clients for several years, primarily seeking advice on their pensions and investments as they moved into retirement.

Protecting Income When It Matters Most
Tom is a business owner who had built up a successful company, alongside a growing portfolio of pensions and investments. With a young family and financial commitments, his income was central to both his personal and business life. While Tom had focused on building wealth, he had given less thought to what would happen if he were unable to work.

Very friendly company. Felt at ease from the very beginning. Matthew and Tim were extremely helpful and accommodating to our needs. I would recommend to friends and family.

Had an excellent review meeting with Rebecca last week. It was very informative and left no stone unturned. Rebecca answered all my long list of questions in a manner that was easy to understand and very professional. I’d certainly recommend Churchill to anyone who is in interested in investments.
