Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it

"Martin required just the briefest of details of the help I was looking for. He got back in touch a few days later with the name of an independent advisor to try. I've been very happy with everything so far. No fee from Martin, and the advisor's fees are well below the big shops. Feels nice to be supporting the smaller-team boutiques too."

Robert Hardy

United Kingdom

"Knowing the costs upfront and experiencing such transparency throughout the entire process has been so important to me. There were no hidden fees or surprises, which gave me real peace of mind. It's refreshing to work with a company that values honesty and clarity."

Mr T. Brand

Holland

"I'm so glad I decided to review my current investments. After years of being stuck with subpar returns, your service helped me move to a better-suited manager. The transition was seamless, and I can already see the difference in performance. I only wish I had done it sooner!"

Mr J. Sandford

A Message from the Founder

Why I Built Link Independent

"

After more than 20 years working in international financial services, I'd built up a network of people and businesses around the world that I knew, trusted and respected.

I also knew how difficult it could be for someone outside the industry to know who they should trust.

That's really where Link Independent came from. It isn't about having the biggest directory. It's about knowing who we're introducing people to โ€” and being comfortable putting the Link Independent name behind that introduction.

Monte the dog
๐Ÿพ This is Monte

Away from the business, I'm a proud Scot, a dad of three, and the reluctant owner of one very enthusiastic dog โ€” Monte. He doesn't contribute much to the business plan, but he's excellent company and very supportive of the brand. I also spend time coaching youth football, which I really enjoy. When I'm not working, you'll usually find me involved in sport, behind the wheel, or planning the next trip โ€” something that perhaps explains my appreciation for how global life has become.
