Scott Pretorius Dipfa® Pgdipfp Email & Phone Number

Independent Financial Planner with over 12 years of experience in the financial services industry, both in South Africa and the UK, and I hold a Diploma for Financial Advisers (DipFA®) and a Postgraduate Diploma in Financial Planning (PGDipFP).My passion is to remove the complexities and confusion surrounding financial and investment planning, and to help my clients achieve their financial wellbeing and lifestyle goals. I work with them to develop and implement a personalised financial plan that answers life's most important questions, such as: Am I going to be okay? Will my family be okay? Will I be able to maintain my current lifestyle in retirement?As a Financial Planner, I also provide behavioural coaching and guidance to my clients, to help them avoid making crucial mistakes based on emotion and not logic. Long-term financial success is not about investment performance, but about investor behaviour. I do not predict the direction of the economy or the stock market, nor do I manage money without a financial plan. Instead, I focus on goal-based investment management and on the principle of 'time in' the market, not 'timing' the market.
