I arrived at Baycrest Wealth through recommendation of a good friend. What I appreciated the most about the service is that I never have to send many emails to get a response, and if there is a need to speak on the phone the Advisor is always readily available and flexible. The conversations are always very friendly and open. The service is Tailored.

Financial security with complete confidence…

Putting ones trust into someone to look after your finances and so your future is a massive decision and finding the right people or company is absolutely vital.
I was looking for someone who understands my particular circumstances and who is professional and precise.
Baycrest Wealth was recommended to me by a colleague and I have found exactly what I needed .
They are obviously professional , punctual and precise and achieve great results for me , but above all they are able to explain to me all the complexities of the financial world in a way I can fully understand.
Financial security is of such importance and I have put all my trust in Baycrest with complete confidence.

Learned about Baycrest from a colleague as competent, knowledgable and honest people. When I got in contact with them to transfer my pension funds, they have proven to be exactly that. On top of it very friendly and helpful as well. 5 stars

Baycrest Wealth, in one word, Excellence!

Iain and his team arranged the transition and redeployment of my pension savings. He is very committed, dedicated and knowledgeable. His team worked very closely together with me and the personal advice was amazing. This gave me confidence and piece of mind, my savings are in good hands. Ian has an extremely good response time, always there to assist or provide an answer to a burning question. Thanks for all your dedicated work !

Highly recommended

Baycrest have been looking after my pension and investments for over 10 years, first as an expat and then on my return to live in the UK. I would not hesitate to recommend this company. Iain McKay and his assistant Hayley Laven are always friendly and approachable, are professional and knowledgeable and, most importantly, accessible. They are always quick to respond if there are any questions or issues. They give honest and realistic advice based on the client’s needs and also provide regular reviews and performance updates to check if financial products continue to meet a client’s individual requirements. In particular Iain and Hayley guided me expertly through the complexities of adjusting my financial planning on my return to the UK. I am therefore confident that my finances are being well managed.

Moving savings out of UK

I had a savings plan in the UK that I wanted to move out pre-Brexit. For this I came in contact with Iain McKay and Haeley Leaven. They were super helpful in answering all questions and fulfilling my wishes for investment.
All paperwork were prepared and thoroughly talked through before the final commitment.
I can only recommend the service provided by Iain and Hayley with Baycrest Wealth.

Pension Plan

Searching for an advisor to handle my pension plan I came across Iain McKay of Baycrest Wealth. Already after the first contact I had the impression that Iain not only has a large knowledge and experience concerning all financial matters but that he also is a trustful person who puts the interest of the client in the foreground. Unlike other providers, with Iain the service doesn’t stop when the contract is signed. Should I have a question or issue, I can always reach either himself or his highly qualified and helpful assistant Hayley and get the support or the answers I am asking for. It is a question of trust to let somebody else handle your financial matters. I have a confident feeling that I made the right choice in handing over my financial matters to Iain.
