Written by the company

We are Financial Advisers based in Sligo with clients all over Ireland. Coman and Enda Brady established the company in 2005. Since then, we have developed and refined our services to where we now provide financial planning and wealth management services to business owners. We help business owners make good decisions with their money and retire with confidence. We work best with owners over age 45 who plan to sell and/or retire in the next 5–10 years. Our service has two linked parts: Financial Planning and Investment Management. Financial Planning looks at where you are now, what’s important to you and where you want to go, then develops a plan to help you get there. Investment Management is about managing and investing your money in a way that meets the need of your plan. New clients are typically interested in developing a long-term relationship with a Financial Adviser who will work with them year after year. This can help clients to best use their money to achieve all the things that are important to them. Get in touch to see how we’ll help you.

Thank you for taking the time to do your review. We’re glad that you enjoyed last week’s webinar particularly the questions and the speaker. We’ll be in touch with you directly in relation to your query on EBITA. This is one of the more common methods used to value businesses in many, although not all, sectors. It stands for Earnings Before Interest, Tax and Depreciation with businesses valued at a multiple of EBITA. The multiple can be anywhere from 3 to 20 times depending on the sector.

Coman Brady in IQ Financial has been dealing with our financial planning since their company was set up. The service includes Life Insurance, Pensions and most importantly future financial planning. The whole experience is extremely professional and explained in lay-mans terms. The updates are short and to the point.

My wife Jill and I sold our business at the end of March this year and IQ Financial were of great help with advice and "holding our hands" during the process. Their service in general is very personalised and I would highly recommend IQ Financial.

Financial Planning

I have worked with Coman and the team at IQ Financial for the last 5 years, and I cannot recommend IQ Financial highly enough. The Journey so far has been a real joy, as a business owner I was very good at managing the companies financials but didn’t take any time to focus on my own ! Thanks to Coman I now have a clear plan in place for both mine and my family’s Financial future, he keeps me on track, and is just a pleasure to deal with. Thanks for keeping me focused on the end game Coman.

Excellent Financial Advice

From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with friendliness and courtesy by both Maria and Enda. Enda then talked me through my queries patiently and thoroughly. I left feeling that I was right to seek advice and learned things I wouldn't have, had I consulted Dr. Google. I was very impressed with this company Aileen

Great service provided by Enda and iQ Financial

Enda has been my financial advisor for about 10 years. While being very professional and knowledgeable he is also very personable, and provides pragmatic advice in a way that is easy to understand. With his help I have made investments after a redundancy, and thereafter for my pension/retirement. These have been in line with the investment plan he developed based on my personal/family requirements and my investment risk profile. He is very proactive (thankfully, because I’m not!) ensuring we carry out periodic reviews, so as my circumstances change the plan continues to meet my needs. I highly recommend Enda and the personal service he provides.
