Saltus Customer Reviews

Tell us what you think of this provider.

Excellent service and communication.

20th February 2025

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!

Well explained advice

20th February 2025

I moved across to Saltus from another company.

Within weeks I had a better understanding of my money!

Always available to discuss any concerns or moves in thinking about.

It’s still early days but I’ve nothing but positive things to report so far.

Very helpful, reliable adviser

20th February 2025

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!

Saltus Expert Review

Saltus Expert Review: Best Wealth Manager 2025
Saltus

Provider: Saltus

Verdict: Saltus won "Best Wealth Manager" in the 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.

Summary

Best Wealth Manager 2025

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.

Pros

  • Strong investment performance
  • Bespoke client service
  • Transparent, tiered fees

Cons

  • £250k minimum investment
  • Initial advice charge
  • Limited DIY option
  • Wealth Manager Rating
