Ken Hopewell

WEALTH PLANNER

Kenneth Hopewell is a client-centred Financial Adviser holding a diploma with the Chartered Institute of Securities and Investments. In what seems to him like a previous life, he was a head teacher and had a tutoring business in South Korea and he feels that has given him a lot of transferable skills when it comes to being an adviser. Some key ones for him are listening, organisation, people skills, problem solving, self-motivation, emotional intelligence, and multitasking.  

He is completely focused on meeting the needs of his clients, finding out what is important to them, and making a financial plan together to help them succeed in reaching their goals. Ken decided to become a financial adviser after producing a retirement plan for his family and realised that he really enjoyed the process. He also likes meeting people and wanted to do something where he would be able to help others. He offers all aspects of financial advice including, but not limited to retirement planning, tax planning, estate planning, protection, and financial education.

Outside of work he enjoys hiking, walking with his dog, and trying to catch up with his children on their bikes or scooters.
