About us

Financial planning explained

Discover how financial planning can help you understand your options and make informed decisions about your financial future.

A plan for the future you want

Independent financial advice means offering unbiased recommendations tailored to your personal needs. Our role is to fully understand your goals, offer expert advice, and provide a clear strategy to help you achieve your long-term financial objectives. We research all available options so that we can advise the best fit for you.

Keeping you in control of your finances

Unlike restricted advice, which is limited to a select range of products, independent financial advice gives you the freedom to explore the entire market. We want you to be informed about your options, and empowered to make decisions with confidence.

I have been financially advised by James Sinclair of Achieve Financial Planning since 2009 when he set up as an independent adviser. My husband and I were advised initially when we retired and the service was excellent. James was always available to assist at any time with matters big or small. We meet up annually in person for a review which is always a happy occasion. When my husband died Bruce Paterson was very helpful with sorting out financial matters. I have no hesitation in recommending Achieve Financial Planning.

We met Bruce for our annual planning meeting and as usual he was very professional and explained everything so we could understand it.

I approached Achieve Financial Planning with absolutely no idea of what I wanted to do with monies I had inherited and felt very insecure about investing. I was immediately made to feel at ease and comfortable and I am confident in the advice given and the extensive knowledge staff have, making me feel secure with the investments made. I would highly recommend Bruce Paterson and Achieve financial Planning as they are very supportive, keep you well informed and I look forward to their continued support in the future.
