Blackford Financial Services

Our Goal is…

As independent financial advisers, our role is simple: to help you achieve your financial goals.

Since 2004 we have helped thousands of private clients and business owners on the Isle of Man to plan and manage their financial goals and aspirations.

We do not use computer generated plans, we take the time to understand every aspect of your finances, and the lifestyle you want now, and in the future, before producing a comprehensive analytical report that will be totally unique to you and your circumstances.

Working with Blackfords

As a firm of Independent Financial Advisers, we are free to advise on financial products available to Isle of Man residents.

You’ll get our help to review your existing financial situation and reach a realistic assessment of your likely needs. For this, you’ll need to set aside some time to talk to us – the first one-hour consultation is free. There’s no charge and no obligation while we find out together if we are able to help you.

Depending on your instructions we will carry out a needs analysis based on your current situation, taking into account any specific plans and/or targets that you may have. We will then advise you on anything from a short term financial objective to a lifetime financial plan, which can be followed up with a regular review service.

You will receive professional advice about where your financial arrangements are already good, and where they are inadequate, or not covered at all.

You’ll also have our help to decide how much provision you need to make, and the order of priority in dealing with your finances. This will all be sensibly balanced in relation to your current income and your prospects.

All of our proposals will be fully explained and costed so that you’ll know exactly what and why before you agree to anything.

Testimonials

For us, it’s always about delivering what’s most important to you. Here’s what just a very small selection of our clients think about our service.

It’s not easy to say just how much better I feel about our financial situation since going through a full financial review with Dave at Blackfords. It actually feels like I’m in control now, not the money, and that my plan is right for when I retire.

Ms H Onchan

I needed some advice on protecting my family in the event of something happening to me. By the time I finished, I could see just how many mistakes I had been making in my financial planning, a great service which has totally changed my thinking.

Mr M Douglas

From the very first appointment, it was obvious that Blackfords were a business totally focused around helping us. Their in-depth review and analysis showed us opportunities we hadn’t even realised were possible. Genuinely life changing and we highly recommend the team.
