Wealth Management Hampshire

Patronus Partners is a leading boutique wealth management firm in Hampshire and London. Spear's Magazine 'Top 10 Wealth Managers in the UK’ (James Barton).

A Leading wealth management company in Hampshire

Patronus was founded in 2015 on the realisation that large wealth management companies are often sub-optimal for clients.

Patronus is an increasingly rare example of a genuinely independent, unconflicted, staff owned wealth management firm in Hampshire.

Our clients benefit from our team’s experience working for large banks, hedge funds and investment firms but prefer a more intimate, friendly and client focused boutique wealth management firm.

We prefer to stay small, independent and optimal for a limited number of clients.

“We are all escapees from large firms and feel that clients no longer want the bland industry stereotype but prefer a smaller firm whose interests are aligned with theirs. The industry is ever- homogenising and unfortunately seems to focus more on shareholders than on clients".

— James Barton, Spear’s magazine.

The Unspoken Truth…

is that large pension advice firms are often sub-optimal for their clients.

As an independent pension advisor we are not constrained by being tied to our own in-house funds, looking after too many clients and nor are we under relentless shareholder pressure for revenue growth – all of which are detrimental to clients.

Our clients receive truly independent advice about their pensions in an unbiased way.

We only ever offer what we believe to be the best in class in order to deliver the best outcome for our clients.

Modern lounge area with green and beige velvet seating, wooden accents, large leafy plants, and warm, ambient lighting.

"Patronus’ from the original Latin, is a person who stood as a protector to another, who was called his ‘client’. It struck a chord with us.”

— Paul Kavanagh CEO

Why invest with a wealth management firm in Hampshire?

Independence

We are employee owned with no shareholder pressure to deliver ever increasing revenue targets, which are often to the detriment of the client.

Freedom

We are not constrained or conflicted by the issues many pension advice firms face such as being tied to their own ’in-house’ funds and static portfolios. We are free to invest in what we believe will give the best outcome.

Performance

Whilst we cannot guarantee that past performance will be repeated, since inception, our portfolios have performed better than the industry benchmark. 

Experience

Most members of our team have over 20 years’ experience looking after the investments for private clients and working in senior positions of larger firms.

Close Relationships

We deliberately have fewer clients so that they can benefit from an intimate relationship with the firm and have direct access to our whole team in Berkshire and London.

Fees

We do not charge initial fees for our advice just a clear annual fee, only payable once you start to invest with us.

  • Secure Your Future with Expert Guidance

    Hampshire is a county renowned for its heritage, coastal charm, and thriving business hubs. However, alongside its beauty and opportunities comes the challenge of making informed financial decisions. Wealth management in Hampshire is about more than investments—it’s about creating a structured plan to grow, protect, and preserve your assets so that your financial future is secure.

    At Patronus Partners, we specialise in helping individuals, families, and business owners across Hampshire design wealth strategies that are practical, resilient, and tailored to their goals.

    Why Wealth Management Matters in Hampshire

    Hampshire’s economy is diverse, with strong sectors in technology, maritime, aerospace, and tourism. This variety presents unique opportunities for investors, but also complexity. Wealth management ensures that you maximise these opportunities while safeguarding your assets for the long term.

    • For professionals in towns like Basingstoke and Andover, financial planning often involves aligning growing incomes with retirement and property goals.

    • For families in market towns such as Petersfield or Alresford, estate planning and tax-efficient savings play an important role.

    • For coastal residents in places like Lymington, wealth management can involve structuring property investments and safeguarding legacies.

    Hampshire: Where History, Coast, and Countryside Meet

    Living in Hampshire means access to vibrant cities, historic landmarks, and some of England’s most beautiful landscapes. From the maritime heritage of Portsmouth to the rolling hills of the South Downs and the tranquillity of the New Forest, Hampshire offers a unique lifestyle. Wealth management here should reflect not just your financial goals but the way you want to live.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Wealth Management in Hampshire

    1. Why should I choose a Hampshire-based wealth manager instead of a national firm?
    Local wealth managers are well-versed in Hampshire’s economic strengths, encompassing its maritime industries and rural property markets. This insight ensures that your plan is tailored to the region's opportunities and challenges.

    2. Can wealth management help with property investment in Hampshire?
    Yes. Property plays a significant role in Hampshire, whether it’s a family home, a buy-to-let investment, or a coastal property. A wealth manager can integrate property into your wider financial plan, ensuring it complements your retirement, tax, and investment strategies.

    3. How often should I review my wealth management plan?
    At least once a year is recommended. However, major life events—such as selling a business, relocating to the coast, or approaching retirement—should prompt an additional review.

    4. Is wealth management only for the wealthy?
    No. While many clients are high-net-worth individuals, wealth management also helps professionals, families, and business owners build and protect their financial security over time.

    5. What makes Patronus Partners different from other firms in Hampshire?
    We combine national expertise with deep local knowledge. Our advice is independent, transparent, and focused on long-term relationships—not quick fixes.
