Saltus Customer Reviews
Based on 500 customer reviews and our expert analysis Expert review by Richard Berry · Last updated 3rd June 2026 Saltus won “Best Wealth Manager” in the 2026 and 2025 Good Money Guide Awards for it’s tailored financial planning and investment services. Saltus stands out in the UK wealth management industry by blending personalised financial planning with a sophisticated investment approach more often found in institutional circles. Founded in 2004, the firm manages over £10 billion in assets and holds Chartered status for its financial planning division, reflecting high standards in advice. Saltus takes a highly personalised route from the outset, matching clients with advisers who align with their goals and communication preferences. Their planning process includes robust cashflow modelling and tax optimisation, resulting in comprehensive strategies that span life planning and investment management. Their investment performance, as independently benchmarked by the ARC Private Client Indices (ARC PCI), is particularly impressive. Saltus has outperformed peers over 3, 5, and 10-year periods across cautious, balanced, growth, and equity risk categories — all while generally taking less risk. For instance, their core Growth strategy delivered an annualised 7.2% return over five years to the end of 2025, compared to 4.6% for the ARC benchmark. Fees are competitive and decline as portfolios grow, with no exit charges and transparent upfront costs, especially for larger portfolios. The ongoing cost for a £1.5m client portfolio in their core investment strategies is around 1.45% (including financial planning), and investment-only clients benefit from reduced charges. Client satisfaction is high, reflected in a 2025 Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 67 (well above the financial services average) and a 97% client retention rate. For context, Apple’s 2025 NPS score was 61 and Amazon’s 47. Bain & Co suggest that a score of 70 or more places a company in the ‘world-class’ category. A good choice for high-net-worth individuals seeking top-tier financial planning and strong, risk-adjusted investment performance. Based on 500 reviews SIPP style Income – Balanced with Saltus. I have been very impressed with the way this fund has been managed by Ivan Linter and the Saltus team. The communications directly with Ivan has been exceptional and the wider Saltus communications are also informative and regular, providing insights to wide financial investment topics. I have complete trust and confidence that Ivan and Saltus will grow my fund year on year as it has since the Saltus/Beckford merger. Ivan has always been very helpful and knowledgeable and has provided great advice over several years. I’m pleased with the investments Saltus have made in my behalf. I like the hassle free approach to managing my ISA I am thoroughly impressed with the exceptional service provided by my financial planner, Ivan Lintner , and the entire team at Saltus. I have an investment account as well as an ISA managed by the team. The level of communication and transparency they offer truly sets them apart, instilling confidence in their approach. Ivan’s deep knowledge is evident, but what stands out even more is his dedication to truly understanding our goals and needs. I have complete trust in Saltus and have no hesitation in recommending them. The app is an added bonus that makes the experience even more seamless! I moved across to Saltus from another company. Ivan initiates regular contact, sends summary details online and is endlessly patient when I ask him for advice, whether or not there is likely to be a positive financial outcome for him. More importantly, my investments are making money, albeit gradual, due to my attitude to risk. Roll on retirement! My wife and I have been clients for a number of years and we have been impressed with the service provided by Saltus. They manage My Pension and an Isa. We are not only pleased with the annual performance of the funds, reasonable fee structure and ease of access, but also with the annual personal face to face reviews.
