What our clients have to say...

I have used Derek, Michelle and the team at Financial Architects for around 20 years and have always found them friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The team have been invaluable to me and my family in terms of financial advise ranging from insurance products, pensions/investments and mortgages.
Financial Architects are leading the way with their technology based approach to personal financial analysis, budgeting and projections. It offers a very clear financial picture which helps me understand my goals and the steps I should take to reach them.

Probably the best 90 minutes I have invested in my life regarding my financial affairs. And all data driven, great advices by Derek, I would highly recommend his consultancy session.

Robert Mujica

Great company, Financial Architects have provided me with excellent financial advice. Having worked for a few companies over a 20 year period I had couple of small pensions. Derek and the team took the hassle away from moving these pensions and offered reliable trustworthy advice based on what was applicable and important to me. I’d have no hesitation in recommending Financial Architects for anyone seeking professional financial advice

Leonard Murtagh

I heard of Derek when I was working in an insurance company as someone else had a positive experience. I subsequently met with Derek after being made redundant and found his experience and understanding of the highest quality. Not alone did I invest a pension fund with Derek but have also gone back a second time with a different investment. I would recommend Derek to anyone looking for solid and honest advice.

Gerard Meany

Derek has given us a lot of his time discussing various pension and savings options with us and has been really helpful and informative. Discussing our options with him and using the services provided by Financial Architects has made everything much easier for us and we now feel better prepared for the future!

Gemma Doyle

Financial architects are a one stop shop for all my needs. Asset management, consolidation, pension matters, investments, wills etc all handled by one organisation. There’s also the local business feel to it where I can have a casual discussion or more formal discussion, whatever the need. Really appreciate all of the help from Derek and the folks and highly recommend.

John McGuinness

Met with Derek and Brian and had a great afternoon. I learned a lot about who I am financially, unearthed some bad habits and a picked up a few wise words for how to tweak my finances for the future.

Martin McDermott

I was thoroughly impressed with the service and advice provided by Derek Maguire. I approached our meeting with some trepidation, expecting a discussion about my personal finances to be complex and convoluted. I certainly wasn’t expecting the very enjoyable meeting that we had. Derek managed to simplify the entire process, breaking everything down into easily understood concepts and laying it all out in layman’s terms. He patiently addressed all of my personal finance concerns and gave me some much needed reassurance as well as sound impartial advice. I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend Derek’s services.

Brian G Brown

Derek has looked after my pension affairs for the last 5 years. His in-depth knowledge of the pension industry and products is excellent, but Derek spends time to really understand your specific pension needs and situation and then suggests truly appropriate investments and portfolios.

After a number of years of my pension fund shrinking, Derek created a pension portfolio that hasn’t stopped growing since he took it over.

Most importantly, unlike any other pension advisor I have ever worked with, Derek actually sends me regular updates showing how the fund is going and suggestions for adjustments.
