    ‘I was introduced to Connor Broadley by my father. I knew he thought of them very highly, and I always

    trust his instincts.

    I found them to be genuinely interested in me, and not just in terms of finance. The advice they gave was honest, impartial and in my best interests, regardless of whether there was anything in it for them. I am really looking forward to developing a deep and lasting relationship with them, like my father’s, as my own future develops.’
