Solid advise at low costs
From the start (after we switched financial advisors) in 2014 both Tom Khares and later Jake McLaughlin impressed us with their understanding of our positions, how to optimise them, and providing sound advise to increase the return on and growth of our portfolio!

Great progress over the last few years with my portfolio. Clear and simple, always there when I need help and coordinating plans between Switzerland and Portugal

I’ve had a good experience with deVere Group.
What I like most is that they actually look at your full situation, not just try to sell you one product. If you’re living abroad, things can get complicated quite quickly with pensions, tax and different regulations, and they seem to understand that side of it well.
Communication has been solid too. It hasn’t just been a one-off conversation, they stay in touch and review things regularly, which I think is important.
Like anything, I’d say it depends on the adviser you’re working with, so it’s worth asking questions and making sure you’re comfortable with the fees and the plan.
Overall though, I’d say it’s been a positive experience and definitely worth speaking to them if you’re an expat trying to make sense of your finances.
Very professional, knowledgeable
Very professional, knowledgeable not only of financial matters but also the legal issues which go with it. Friendly and approachable, so far so very good. Furthermore their "electronic signature" feature works well and is most helpful in today's world where it is not always easy to move from one place to another.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you.

I am extremely satisfied with my experience with deVere.
The quality of the interactions with the Area Manager has been outstanding from start to finish. I particularly appreciated the responsiveness, always quick to reply with clear and professional answers.
I truly felt listened to and understood, which is essential in this kind of relationship. He take the time to understand specific needs and provide tailored guidance, without any unnecessary pressure.
Most importantly, this approach naturally builds a strong relationship of trust. I felt confident throughout the process, knowing that my interests were genuinely taken into account and respected at every step.
Communication has been smooth, transparent, and constructive which has reinforced the sense of trust.
Overall, a very positive experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for attentive, reliable, and professional support. JE

A huge thank you to Thomas Rowson for making the whole process seamless moving my 3 UK pensions to Australia. Thomas was professional, had great communication and kept me calm through the whole process. I would highly recommend Thomas and the de Vere group
All savings gone! - Buyers beware!
I lost a large amount of money (circa £16k) through Devere Group some years ago (at the time - I understand - they were operating illegally in Oman as our financial advisor fled the country). Basically I was mis-sold a Friends Provident product as I was informed payments could be reduced if needed; but this was not true. Never recovered it.
Be aware and don't trust their advisors. They may just vanish on you out of the country!
