Brian Emslie

DipPFS

I provide wealth management advice to clients both within the Canterbury area and more widely throughout the south east of England.

Prior to joining St. James's Place, I worked in the Financial Services industry for 25 years. I have worked with large Insurance companies and Banks, and spent 12 years as an Independent Financial adviser (IFA). This has given me a wide breadth of knowledge and understanding of Financial Services.

I have now established many working relationships with individuals within this sector due, in part, to the insight and understanding that I have for their specific financial requirements – whether these are personal or corporate. 

About

My expertise covers the broad spectrum of financial planning and will help you and your business to:

  • Grow wealth, specifically through St. James's Place's distinctive approach to investment management
  • Preserve assets for long-term financial security
  • Adequately protect assets from potential threats
  • Effectively manage capital and borrowings

I am committed to ensuring that my industry knowledge remains relevant and current by placing strong emphasis on my personal development. This, along with the pride and dedication that I place on developing solid personal relationships with my clients, ensures that I am able offer a rounded, professional and principled service.

Fundamentally, I see my approach as one of problem-solving for the client - rather than product-selling. As a result, my clients can expect to receive the most comprehensive and appropriate advice at all times.

Outside of my business, I am a keen golfer, taking up golf after I could not play football at a semi-professional level.

Charity is also important to me and I regularly donate to a number of charities, one being the St. James's Place Charitable Foundation on a regular basis.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
