I’d like to also take this opportunity to thank Lexington’s co founder Warren Shute CFPTM Chartered FCSI for supporting me. His guidance has been invaluable.”
Warren Shute, Lexington Wealth Management Managing Director and Chartered Wealth Manager said: “I have watched on the side-lines over the last several years and seen how well the Accredited Financial Planning Firms group has grown and developed since inception. I had initially been a little reluctant to apply, but I did so because I realised just how much I was missing out on. The AFPFTM conference looks amazing and the opportunity to network and discuss professional challenges with other leading firms is invaluable, in hindsight, I wish I had applied sooner!”
