Financial planning built around you.

Chris Hinchcliffe believes that good financial planning starts with understanding what matters most to you, your priorities, your ambitions and the life you want your wealth to support.

He works personally with every client, taking the time to understand not only their financial circumstances, but also the bigger picture behind them. His approach is considered, straightforward and personal, helping clients make sense of complex financial decisions and feel confident about the path ahead.

Chris has worked in financial planning for nearly a decade, building his career at a well-established local independent financial advice firm. During that time, he has developed extensive experience working with a wide range of clients and financial planning needs, from retirement and investment planning through to pensions, tax planning and more complex financial circumstances.

His background has given him a particularly strong technical understanding of financial planning. Having worked across a broad variety of cases, Chris combines detailed technical knowledge with the ability to explain complex matters clearly and practically, ensuring that advice remains focused on what it means for the client and their wider plans.

As a Chartered Financial Planner, Chris holds the Advanced Diploma in Financial Planning (APFS), reflecting a high level of technical knowledge and professional standards, as well as a BA (Hons) in Economics and Finance.

Away from work, Chris enjoys spending time with his partner and young daughter. He is a keen chess player, having played competitively from a young age, and still enjoys the strategic challenge of the game today. More recently, he has also become a regular pickleball player at his local club in Farnham.
