Although based in Chester, we have a growing client base across, Cheshire, North Wales, Shropshire and Merseyside.  We also have can adviser based in London, and have corporate clients located across the UK.

We were formed in 2019 as a result of a merger between 2 local companies, Arrow Financial Services based in Chester and D&G Independent based in Mold. The merger brings about a clear succession-planning path, ensuring the company is well-positioned to prosper for many years ahead, providing excellent service to both new and existing clients.

We are also very excited to announce we have teamed up with the Sense Network, who we have recently engaged to provide us with ongoing business and regulatory support. Sense are committed to independent financial advice and provide robust and fair compliance procedures, which in turn allows us to get on with devoting our time and energy to looking after our clients.
