Investment Advice
- Have you money in the Bank earning little or no interest?
- Are you concerned about inflation eating into the value of your savings?
- Maybe you have a particular objective you want to achieve so you want to accumulate a target amount by a particular date?
- Or you may just want to accumulate wealth.
What ways can I invest?
If you have savings sitting in a bank account which you want to invest, this is called a single premium or lump sum investment. If you have surplus monthly income which you want to invest, this is called an instalment savings plan. You can do either of these or you can invest a lump sum combined with monthly instalments.
As Specialist Investment Advisers we will ensure that you have a clear investment strategy. All advisers are required to ask you to complete a risk questionnaire, however before doing so we will talk to you in detail about the following;
- how the various asset classes work and the expected returns from each
- the risks inherent in investing and strategies for reducing risk
- recommended investment strategy for you
We believe that this results in a risk rating which is better tailored to your individual situation and therefore a better outcome.
Many people approach investing by allocating as much money as they have to spare, to a single investment, with little regard for risk or return. If you are serious about successful investing you need to come at it from another angle.
Our minimum single premium investment amount is €100,000 and our minimum instalment amount is €1,000 per month.

Notice Regarding Investment Scams
Fraudsters are increasingly using the details of legitimate investment firms to defraud people out of significant sums of money. We meet all investment clients face to face. If you are instructed to transfer funds without having first met and verified the identity of the firm representative face to face, our advice would be to not undertake the investment.

Highfield Financial Planning in the Media
The Sunday Times
In the sport of target pistol shooting there is a saying, “slow is smooth, smooth is fast”, which refers to the way to approach drawing and firing a pistol quickly and accurately. The learner shooter who focuses on practising the correct technique slowly, only building in speed later, will win the day nine times out of ten.
The Sunday Independent
A pension is a term that can seem distant to many, especially if you’re at the beginning of your career. But it is a vital part of long-term financial planning, designed to provide you with a source of income in your retirement years. As the pension landscape continues to evolve, understanding the fundamentals and staying informed about the changes is crucial. So, what do you need to know?
The Sunday Times
I have been sitting on about €140,000 in my current account for the past year. It’s what was left over when I sold a property. I keep reading about inflation and how banks are paying no interest and might start paying negative interest, and so on.
The Sunday Times
Would-be investors have a difficult decision to make when considering their options. If they are going to increase their wealth, they will need, at a minimum, to beat inflation and whatever they are paying in charges.

If you’re at the beginning of your working life or are simply new to pensions, we look at what you need to know
The Sunday Times
The phrase “Morton’s fork” can be traced back to the time of King Henry VII in the 15th century, when John Morton, then the Archbishop of Canterbury and lord chancellor, rationalised that a tax levied by the king was just.
Sunday Independent
Q I HAVE €150,000 which I want to invest for between 10 and 15 years — with a view to using it to fund my retirement in the future. I’m 50 years old. I am interested in property investment and had considered using the lump sum to buy a property outright.
The Sunday Times
If I asked 10 people on the street how long they thought pensions had existed, what do you think they would say? Since the 1960s, the formation of the state, or Victorian times?

No matter how far away you are from retirement, it is always a good time to start a pension or to build up your contributions. And the tax benefits are considerable, writes Siobhán Maguire

Our Process
Why We Changed Our Business To Focus On Financial Planning
Having been involved in Financial Services for over 29 years our experience is that most people feel that they aren’t well served by the traditional financial advice model. Commission based sales creates a huge conflict of interest as in order for a financial adviser to be paid for his work he must sell you a financial product.
Many people who approach us for financial planning services tell us that they feel that what they have been getting is sales, and they want advice.
Our most successful clients use Financial Planning to manage their finances and accumulate wealth. Studies have shown that people who engage in Financial Planning are more on track with their financial affairs and have higher net worths.
Who Is Financial Planning Suitable For?
- You own your own home or are planning to purchase a home soon
- You have surplus income (although you may well feel that it is not being used optimally)
- You may have financial products (pensions, life assurance, investments etc) but they were sold to you by someone who had a target to achieve
- You are interested in developing a cohesive plan to achieve your financial objectives
