In episode 52, Caroline Garnham talks to Bob Morrison, Managing Director of SecTech, which he founded in 2006. Bob's business provides personal security for wealthy families. His vision is that rich families need to put as much thought into protecting the safety of their homes and families as they do into protecting their wealth.

Bob talks of blending into the lives of his clients as gym buddies, sober companions, and dog walkers, women close protection officers as girlfriends and nannies for female clients and for celebrities' tough guys in full view.

For Bob, it is the perfect career, and he looks forward to it every day. Bob's idea of an excellent day's work is when nothing happens!

In episode 51, Caroline Garnham talks to Simon O'Donoghue Chief Executive Officer of Spring Investment Management, which Simon launched in 2022. It is the first digital platform in the offshore world. It is based in Jersey, where Simon lives with his family and claims to be the 'future of investment management'.

Simon's digital platform means there is no need for a meeting between the client and investment manager to 'onboard' the client. The three-step process of accessing your risk tolerance, choosing your portfolio, and deciding how much to invest can be done online, which reduces the fees needed to set up and transfer.

Simon's Spring is doing something right because it has not only won numerous awards in the first year of set up, but the judges were highly complimentary of the innovation and concept.

Well done, Simon.

In episode 49, Caroline Garnham talks to Jonathan Norbury, head of the Key Clients team, which manages the highest profile and wealthiest clients of Lloyds Bank.

Jonathan speaks of his degree in languages, which was less useful than he had hoped in his career in banking, although his five years in the army did shape the way he treats his clients and builds their trust. He also speaks from experience about the power of reciprocation and from the Lloyds/Schroders joint venture in 2019, the power of aggregation.

In episode 48, Caroline talks to Robert Morse a partner at The Private Office. He is an independent wealth manager, investment advisor, financial planner, and investment and pension specialist.

The Private Office operates as a Family Office for those families who do not want to set up their own Family Office or if they have want to use the expertise in appointing the professionals they may require from time to time.

This approach has seen The Private Office win multiple awards, such as the Chartered Financial Planning Firm of the Year by their professional body the PFS. The Private Office also has a graduate training program and, through the success of this program, can offer a team of professionals with an average age of 38 rather than 58.
