At 5 Financial, we are owned by people who work in our practice - not a bank or financial institution.  Our Investment Committee looks carefully at a wide range of investment options drawn from across the market.This committee is made up of our senior wealth management advisers and it meets monthly. It researches emerging offerings and reappraises our existing recommendations to ensure they continue to be a strong offering for our clients.You may be interested to know our Investment Committee spends just as much time critiquing investment options that, at the end of the day, 'don't make the cut'. This is because we want to explore a wide range of options on behalf of our clients, including emerging opportunities. Our investment philosophy is to seek out investment opportunities that are low cost, tax efficient and fit within our focus to offer strong diversification.
