Douglas Steers & Company  Avis 

We would recommend the Douglas Steers team who from the outset have given us solid financial advice which was specific to our family's goals and taylored to our appetite for risk. Time was taken to thoroughly explain and talk through the issues and options. We are regularly updated regarding the progress of our investments

We were assigned this company through the government Unbiased website and dealt with Simeon.

He has very easy to deal with, avoided jargon and totally out our mind at rest.

Justin was friendly and provide helpful advice to help me understand what was needed to meet my goals.

He has made the process stress free.

I would be happy recommend Douglas Steers.

Like many other reviewers on here I found Douglas Steers through the Unbiased website.

Justin Davies contacted me initially and then we met a couple of times when he went through all of my options in a very clear calm professional and precise way, which when you are trusting someone with your financial future is all you can ever ask for. There was no promises, just very straightforward sensible advice.

On the back of these discussions I took the decision to transfer my pension over to Douglas Steers less than 3 years ago and in that time the growth my pension has achieved has far exceeded my expectations to the extent that I am now considering retiring far sooner than I ever thought possible.

Even when my pension took a bit of a dip due to world events Justin took the time to call me to reassure me that they were determined to get it back up to the level it was before the dip, and he was good for his word. I thought that call was a really nice touch.

Justin and I spoke again this week as I am considering retiring in the not too distant future and he reassured me about all of my concerns and made it clear that Douglas Steers will be there to advise me at every step of the way. He followed it up with an email explaining all of the scenarios we discussed.

It genuinely feels like he is doing everything possible to ensure I don't have any financial concerns about this next step of my life.

I had an excellent experience with Justin Davies who I met via Douglas Steers &Co .

I am very happy to invest my pensions with Justin at Douglas Steers the returns are looking excellent and I now feel much more confident regarding my retirement planning.
Highly recommended Justin for his clear and honest pension advice , and further he is always there when I need him responding promptly to emails and phone calls .

I have a good level of respect and trust in Justin who has been our POC for my Pension since 2024, and am very happy currently at the performance of my Pension which he advised switching from a different company to Aviva, he did have a bit of a task to persuade me as my previous provider was, i thought, doing very well, that said I decided to take his advice and chose a managed plan, this has been having a great return in the last 2yrs so obviously I am very happy!

I was slightly anxious about starting on this journey with Unbiased. However, once I had an advisor, Mark Donohue from Douglas & Steers, following up on my enquiry, it went smoothly at a pace that I was happy with. Communiaction was always clear and informative and at no time did I feel under any pressure to. make decisions. I was able to take the time I needed to reflect on my course of action and I feel confident about the advice that I have received.

Very reliable and trustworthy advice regarding finances and pensions etc have used them for many years and would recommend there services. David and Ben have been especially helpful helping to sort out problems with some companies that have proven to be difficult with some of there actions.

I was introduced to Douglas Steers & Co. via unbiased.co.uk which gave me confidence from the outset.
Their advisor - Mark Donohue, was very knowledgeable and understood my needs completely. After 3 meetings I am now in a position to retire based on Mark's advice and the options he presented. He did all the background work and dealt with my various pension providers for me. The forecasts and scenarios were easy to understand and he has helped immensely in navigating the retirement planning minefield. Very pleased with the outcome.

My wife and I had a very helpful meeting with David. He carefully listened to us describe our financial situation and asked several questions before guiding us towards our retirement goals. We appreciated David’s attention to detail and honesty in his feedback.

We first met Danny after consulting with other companies, but from the start he made us feel comfortable and explained our options, and answered our questions in terms we could understand.

I have been dealing with Danny Gunn who has been consistent. Always keeps in touch and replies to any queries that I have extremely quickly. The advice that he gave was informative and he took the time to answer all my questions and concerns. He came to my home on 3 occasions to go through the process of moving my pensions to a new provider. Explained the fees and ongoing cost. To be honest, I couldn't have wished for a better person to discuss my pensions needs with. I would highly recommend him.

I am very comfortable having been looked after by David as my financial advisor for the past 7 years.
David is always extremely helpful & supportive providing expert advice. When we meet for my regular reviews David listens to my questions & always explains all my options very clearly. It makes feel at ease to have David to review my pension plan regularly to produce an outcome that can stand the test of time.
I cannot recomend the Douglas Steers team highly enough for anyone looking for professional future financial planning.

David has always taken the time to understand us and our needs, provide clear information to help us make the best decisions, resulting in complete trust in any advice we receive.

I first contacted Douglas Steers & Co speculatively in the summer of last year. I have been very pleased with the advice and help provided by Henry Steers, who consolidated my many diverse and underperforming pension funds into a single fund which has since performed very well. Henry has been very responsive and professional, offering good investment advice and demonstrating flexibility during an uncertain time for pensions. Always attentive and willing to visit to discuss options, Henry has my full confidence to manage my new drawdown pension going forward.

I put my personal pension into the hands of Douglas Steers in Feb 24. Over the last 2 years I have drawn down a significant monthly pension, covered all costs and seen the value of the fund increase noticeably. I have now increased the amount of drawdown and considering taking a lump sum for home improvements. The pension fund is invested in 20 separate funds, that provide a well balanced international portfolio tailored to suit my personal risk preferences. Since the start I have been impressed with the advice and guidance received and the performance has exceeded my expectations. I am happy to strongly recommend Douglas Steers for personal wealth management.

I have been dealing with them for over 5 years. They are professional, helpful, honest and very knowledgeable, a pleasure to deal with. We have a face to face annual review and I am happy to leave the worrying about my financial future to them.

David Steers makes appointments to see me either at my workplace or my home. David is always on time and polite. His expertise is phenomenal. My investments managed by this Company have been extremely successful. On occasions I have asked for advice - he has always been extremely helpful and very knowledgeable.
