Quotes

I have been with Minerva now for nearly 20 years. Starting with a few individual ISAs with Savio’s sound advice and guidance I have now built up a substantial investment portfolio and pension fund.

I have always been impressed by the care and attention to detail paid to our annual reviews where investment needs are prioritised and opportunities fine-tuned to their maximum potential.

Minerva have also worked tirelessly in helping me secure a recent remortgage. I would highly recommend Minerva to anyone.
