About Us

Brett Investment was established in 2000 by Jeremy Brett and has since grown to be the leading wealth management and financial planning firm in the Scottish Borders.

Since 2004, Brett Investment has worked with clients on a fee basis, as this is the only way to offer truly objective advice. Experience has shown that once the concept of fees has been properly explained to clients, they much prefer working this way (click on our Fees v Commission page for more information).

In 2008 and again in 2011, Brett Investment was one of only five firms to be short-listed for the New Model Adviser of the Year Award (Scotland and Northern Ireland).

Why use a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER professional

  • A CFP professional is someone you can trust
  • A CFP professional is a Financial Planner who has completed a high level qualification
  • A CFP professional adheres to strict rules and regulations so you can always be sure you're receiving the best advice  
  • A CFP professional talks with you to ascertain what you really want from life and how you can achieve this with healthy finance

 

CFPCM, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERCM and are cetification marks owned outside the U.S. by Financial Planning Standards Board Ltd. Institute of Financial Planning is the marks licensing authority for the CFP marks in the United Kingdom, through agreement with FPSB.

“I believe in many cases the consumer gets a raw deal from the financial services industry. Too much focus still exists on the selling of financial products - and not enough on genuine financial planning.

In an increasingly complex and fast moving world the help and advice a financial planner can offer is genuinely invaluable.”
