Financial advise for British & European Expats

I would just like to say that this company is like a breath of fresh air. For almost 30 years I had a few pension arrangements which were actually doing nothing. I really did not know what to do, but, through a friend, I was recommended to get in touch with GPI.

Well, what can I say, I spoke to Olga, one of the directors, who was so calm and professional and gave me great service. She alerted me to all my pension options and furnished me with all the information which enabled me to make my decision on how to proceed.
From that position, I really gained trust into this company and it took a lot of my immediate concerns away, after I decided what to do, from day one, they set everything into motion.
Six months down the line all my pension funds have been transferred into a really good investment scheme which is already accumulating superb interest and this has now completely taken all my worries away.

So helpful over live chat for updates and ideas, which I have never experienced before, Olga introduced me to their investment team who guide me to my best investment options.
All I can say is, a superb service, and we speak on a regular basis; it is like a big family business and they make you a part of it.

George and his team were introduced to me more by a colleague more than 20 years ago. During that time, the advice they gave me was centred around my changing financial situation leading to retirement.
I have never regretted the decision to avail of their expertise.
During those years they have not only manifested competence in turning around a failing portfolio but have also shown a proactive attitude, courtesy and a personal touch. I have to give a special word of appreciation to Olga and Soemoe for their patience and understanding.

I was, and still am, very impressed with the level of professionalism, the regular follow-up contacts which have included discussions via Skype when deemed necessary and, the personal touch. George Petch, himself, has a very hands-on approach which is very reassuring and his associates are of the highest calibre.

They took over a relatively small portfolio, which, quite frankly, was in the doldrums and have turned it around despite the vagaries of the financial markets in recent years. I just sit back and wait for their advice which, I think, indicates the level of confidence I have in them. ​

Clear and Trustworthy Pension Advice

Darin went to great lengths to ensure I fully understood any undertakings and processes, so that I could make informed decisions during my pension fund transfer. He clearly explained the benefits and risks and guided me through the legal and commercial aspects.
I would recommend Darin for sound and clear advice should you be looking at maximising your pension’s potential.

I met George and my first impression was good as he had a very professional manner both in his initial call and our meetings after then.

This was very reassuring as I was nervous about the whole subject of pension transfers because of the “ bad press “ and recommendations to be on the alert for scammers.

GPI Europe and their team, including Mithril Asset Management, the investment advisers, always show a keen knowledge of the investments and a deep understanding of the investment markets and yet explained in simple words.
I am happy with our relationship and look forward to many years of service and advice. ​

I was introduced to George and his team a good few years back. At the time, I had one particular investment, which was under-performing to say the least. The Company took over this investment for me and quite quickly, they assessed the fund and helped me take actions, which have improved its performance.

Since that time, I have expanded more of my portfolio to George and his team. I find them to be professional, reliable and very responsive. Whenever I need help or advice the team at the Company, acknowledge almost immediately with a comprehensive reply.

What gives me the most comfort is receiving pro-active advice and suggestions to alter my portfolio, usually resulting in a positive impact on my investments. I find the investor reports useful, proving that the Company are on top of things which is always encouraging.

GPI were managing my portfolio with Generali which was a ten-year saving plan. GPI has been an effective intermediary between myself and Generali, in providing advice and explanation each time I needed as well as helping me, greatly, with all administrative steps. ​ They have managed effectively the funds through the turmoil of 2008 and performed quite well until the maturity of my plan.

I liked the timely, personalised and attentive guidance which I rarely receive as a small investor and I will definitively continue to rely on them for my further financial investments.

Having met personally George and part of his team, I can confirm that the family-oriented values of the Company and the genuine relationships they establish with the clients fully complement their competence and their commitment to client satisfaction.

Just One of Many Experiences

GPI has managed my finances since the mid-90s and, especially, since I retired in 2003 with over 90% of my pension paid to me as a lump sum. Together with stock options (all now redeemed) this has to last me for the rest of my life.

When my late, first wife received a terminal diagnosis in 2006 she wanted to make long-term provision for our grandson (shortly to be two) and nephew and niece (shortly to be three). When I re-married, my new wife brought three sons into our family (one seriously disabled). Two of my stepsons have families (currently four children; shortly to be five). The vehicle originally chosen was a trust fund for each child. Reporting requirements having become more onerous over time, the management cost for the funds became disproportionately high…

20 years of Experience with GPI

I have been with GPI for almost 20 years now while I was moving around the world, preparing for the next stages of my life ( kids education, retirement) and have always found precious advices and good return on my investment. The team is reactive and always looking at new product for its customers without being pushy. I have always valued as well the personalized approach to my family and myself over the years.

Professional and extremely knowledgeable

I was introduced to both GPI Europe and their director Olga Prytula approximately 8 years ago. Since then Olga has acted as my financial advisor giving me advice on various pensions schemes and investment opportunities. The advice that I have received from Olga over the years has been both extremely professional and invaluable. By following Olga’s advice I have watched my pension grow to a substantial sum where I can relax knowing that when I retire in 7 years from now both my family and I will be financially secure for the rest of our lives.
Both Olga and GPI are constantly monitoring the markets and advise accordingly if they see a need for change, even during the last 12 months where Covid has had a considerable effect on the stock market I have had a 13% return from my investment which is in my opinion unparalleled.

GPI Europe and Marc Toomey

Marc Toomey, Soemoe and the team are always on hand if I should need them. I have full confidence in them to protect my investment and am more than satisfied with the level of service. I am very happy with my choice of GPI to handle the transfer of my pension and would recommend them to anyone. They held my hand all the way through the process and took time to reassure me at every step.

Great service. Thank you.

I originally sought financial advice on saving money on a month by month basis. Unlike many financial advisors who were simply interested in large lump sum investments, the Company was very helpful in creating a savings program that suited my requirements.

Ten years later, thanks to the GPI, I built up a nice savings “nest egg” which I had no hesitation in asking the Company to manage on my behalf.

I have been particularly impressed with the degree of personal service offered by the GPI, the realistic indications of the investment potential, no wild promises, but sensible predictions, and the degree of choice offered to me. The Company does not forget that it is your money and you have full control over what happens to it. ​
