A Case Study
Mr Blood has lived in Spain for eight years. However, as a result of a pension mis-selling review in the UK by a large UK bank he received compensation to cover a pension shortfall. The client was extremely satisfied with the amount of the compensation. Advice was requested from his independent financial adviser (IFA), Barry Davys of The Spectrum IFA Group, on how to invest this compensation to ensure that his pension fund returned to its true value.

“Barry combines his wealth of financial expertise with an innate empathy to provide an expert, completely trustworthy financial service, tailor-made to each client’s specific needs, guiding you patiently along each step of the way. Highly recommended.”

“Our meeting was useful and it was lovely to meet you. You inspired confidence but I am aware that you cannot control the markets! Your suggestion to move some of the funds into a deposit account seems to make sense and I really wish this had been done three years ago.”

My professional relationship with Barry has been for more than 10 years. As a tax lawyer specialising in advice to international clients, Barry and I have worked very closely together; Barry providing all aspects of wealth management advice while I provided the specialist tax advice. This has been particularly important and useful for British people coming to Spain as Barry has the insight into UK taxation and how this interacts with Spanish tax.
I quickly recognised that, with Barry, clients are in good capable hands. In my personal experience, he has always paid attention to clients’ interest first and foremost, is reliable and an expert in advising clients on the management of their wealth.

As a UK accountant with interests in Barcelona, I’ve worked with Barry on a number of clients for over five years. He is particularly good at looking after higher value individuals looking to move to Spain, and he’s especially adept in using the “Beckham Rule”, a valuable tax concession for such people. But just as important, I’ve always found him reliable and very pleasant to deal with.

“Whilst at HSBC I attended client seminars with this adviser in Barcelona. It is clear that he has an excellent relationship with his clients due to his attentive and professional nature. He has proved to be great ambassador for the Spectrum Group.”
