How much does my advice cost?

The first meeting is free. If we stop there, you pay nothing.

It helps us see what needs a closer look; any further work will be agreed with you.

I explain the work involved, the costs and how I am paid before you commit.

When a financial product is put in place

If a suitable product is arranged with a partner, that partner may pay the firm. This remuneration is explained to you before you commit.

When you need a specific piece of advice

An in-depth review, written strategy, calculations or specific coordination may be charged as an agreed fee.

When both apply

Some situations involve both an agreed advice fee and remuneration from a partner for putting a product in place. Both are explained before you commit.

Before you talk to me

Still have questions?

Read the practical guides
Who can I help?

I mainly work with business owners, families with wealth decisions to make, and French nationals who live abroad or are moving abroad, in Spain or elsewhere. If your situation is different, we can discuss whether I can help.

How does the first meeting work?

The first meeting lasts 40 minutes by video call. It is free, confidential and comes with no obligation.

What will I get from the first meeting?

Your priorities, in order: what deserves a closer look now, what can wait, and what the next steps would cost if you want to go further. If you are preparing a move abroad, we also map out your decisions for the next 12 months.

Will I have to buy a financial product?

No. We may find that you do not need to do anything immediately. Any recommendation depends on your circumstances, goals and whether a change is actually worthwhile.

Is the first meeting free?

Yes. The first 40 minutes are free and come with no obligation. If you want a written review, you receive a quote before signing anything.

Do you work remotely?

Yes. Our meetings take place by video call, so I can work with clients in France, Spain and other countries.
