ABOUT ARCH FINANCIAL PLANNING LIMITED - Updated: March 15, 2008    

 

Arch Financial Planning Limited was regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) as a personal investment firm with effect from July 2003.

However, the history of our business goes back to October 1989 when we were authorised to provide independent financial advice under our former name of Arthur Childs Financial Services.

What began as the trading style of Arthur Childs, the founding principal, developed into a family partnership in 2001. As the firm expanded further we sensed the need for a less family-centred name and a move to a limited company status which we did in 2003.

The company has nine independent financial advisers who cover Surrey, South West London, Sussex and Hampshire, although we have clients throughout the UK and indeed overseas. Our advisers are backed up by a three person Support Team based at our Cranleigh office in addition to three full-time directors.

We have around 5,000 customers on our client database and many hundreds of these would count themselves as regular clients. We are responsible for well over £100 million of client funds under 'advisement'.

In June 2008 we will be moving to larger offices within Cranleigh.

Cranleigh

We have been based in Cranleigh, Surrey since October 1989. Cranleigh is technically still a village rather than a town but is home to a number of highly successful organisations which have a reach far beyond Cranleigh such as the two hundred-acre site of independent day and boarding school, Cranleigh School, one of Europe's leading freight companies, Cranleigh Freight Services, Cranleigh Aerials, now a five company group which has clients such as Guildford Borough Council, Hampshire County Council, Berkeley Homes and Laing Homes, the Cranleigh Show, one of the country's oldest one day agricultural shows, and of course, Arch Financial Planning Limited.
