Reviews and Ratings for Financial adviser Gordon Kearney, Colchester

After graduating in 2000 from the University of Essex with a degree in History & Politics Gordon began his career in Financial Services with the Royal London Group in Colchester working in their pensions department. In 2002 he was selected and seconded to Edinburgh to work for Royal London’s sister company Scottish Life. While in Scotland he was principally responsible for managing the company’s group personal pensions.

After 18 months of commuting and working in Edinburgh he returned to Colchester to join Fiducia in 2004 to develop their investment management service as Head of Investments. In 2005 he was made a director of the company and since 2010 he has had a client facing role. Not surprisingly Gordon’s specialism is investments but he also provides broad financial planning advice. Typically he works with young aspiring professionals, business owners and company directors.

He holds the Investment Management Certificate and the Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning and is studying towards Chartered adviser status.

In May 2018, Gordon was appointed the new Managing Director of Fiducia Wealth Management which follows John Millican’s decision to step down and become Executive Chairman.

Outside of work Gordon is devoted to his young family and his beloved Liverpool FC.

What clients are saying about Gordon Kearney...

As a result of working with the Fiducia team I was able to understand my options and make my final choices with a very high level of confidence. It was a great experience that exceeded my expectations and I would not hesitate to recommend Fiducia to friends and family.

At the end of April I took redundancy and retired from a FTSE 100 company. The sums on money involved in terms of redundancy and pension provision were significant and, with a  low level of personal financial expertise, it was critical to me that I understood all my options in detail and achieved the best combined outcome for the long-term. Gordon Kearney and Richard Heath were outstanding in answering my questions on the various options and guiding me through the choices available. I received a very high level of support, with answers being couched in 'everyday' language that I could understand and worked examples being used to demonstrate the potential outcomes.  As a result of working with the Fiducia team I was able to understand my options and make my final choices with a very high level of confidence.

He couldn’t have been more up front, so professional from day one and put my mind at rest as if I was the only client he had.

I could not recommend Gordon Kearney enough. He made sense out what I felt was a difficult problem.

I could not recommend Gordon Kearney enough. He made sense out what I felt was a difficult problem. He arranged my pension transfer which I also took a lump sum out of. Then invested the remainder of it. He also set up 6 trust funds for nephews and nieces. Quality service and will use his expertise again.

Gordon acted in a very friendly but professional manner, he made me realise that my previous attitude to my pension fund was never going to work.

Gordon acted in a very friendly but professional manner, he made me realise that my previous attitude to my pension fund (which was basically ignoring it and assuming that there would be enough in the pot to retire on) was never going to work and that time and effort was needed to turn things around. We looked at my attitudes to risk, when i would like to retire and ideally what i would need in my retirement and once he understood all of these issues he acted accordingly. The transfer of funds from my previous pension provider went very smoothly and I can now say that I understand more about how my money is being invested. Gordon was very open with regards to charges so there were no nasty shocks at the end of the transfer. I would be more than happy to recommend him to others.

Everything we have done over the last two years has been clearly explained and with utter transparency.

In January 2009 I was sitting on my patio, in sunnier climes , reading the financial pages of the "Telegraph". Having shortly before suffered at the hands of a well known firm of financial advisors my eye was drawn to an article headed "Industry leading lights reap rewards for independent advice". The article then proceeded to bestow an award to eight financial advisors each representing an area of the United Kingdom. For the eastern area this went to the Colchester based firm of "Fiducia Wealth Management who have since provided me with the level of expertise and service I was looking for.
