Eli Kosiner

Who do I work with? I have been working with clients from all over the UK for the last 22 years helping them on their property journey. Starting with first time buyers all the way through to lending in retirement and lifetime mortgages/equity release. I have also had the opportunity to help property investors grow their property portfolios as well as corporate clients acquiring commercial premises and development projects. The key driver to the success of the work we have carried out over the years is the meticulous planning for each and every finance requirement. Whether a first time buyer, or professional landlord, each and every transaction is planned to make the purchase journey as smooth as possible for all parties involved. About me? I am married to Ali and we have 2 lovely daughters together with a little Havanese dog. Beyond work, I help run one of the local

My experience I joined Weston Cummins in 2012 having previously worked for more local IFAs outside of London. I have been working in financial services for over 20 years and have attained the Chartered Financial Planner status. My experience has been built around research and technical knowledge, and I use this when working with the fellow advisers that I support to provide advice to my clients (and theirs). I enjoy being able to help my clients with their planning, alongside those of the other advisers. I have found that the answer to all financial planning problems lies within the information we can gather from our clients, therefore, listening and asking lots of questions is key to helping you achieve your goals. About Me Outside of work I am a keen cyclist and have recently started criterium racing. Along the two wheeled theme, I also own a motorbike and enjoy touring

Who do I work with? I believe in a very traditional form of service in my role as a financial adviser. That is providing holistic advice to those who are recommended to me. In many ways this is akin to providing a boutique service, in that all the guidance I give is very specific to the individual receiving the advice and their circumstances. Typically my clients tend to be in their fifties or sixties and approaching retirement, looking to generate an income having retired, or wanting to consider Inheritance tax planning. In addition I often also look after my clients’ wider family. About me I joined HFMC Wealth in 2023, having previously been a director of Weston Cummins where I worked for over 25 years. Over the years I have studied hard to improve the quality of advice that I can provide and I am now a Fellow of the

I have been involved in Financial Services since 1990, initially at a City based Stockbrokers and then my mother’s high profile IFA practice (subsequently acquired by a National Advisory firm). I joined HFMC in 2001, to help build an Employee Benefits division. This now forms a significant part of HFMC Wealth’s turnover. With over 30 years experience in advising corporate clients (focusing predominantly in the SME space), our ethos is to work closely in partnership with our clients to help them build a successful and market competitive employee benefits strategy. This is achieved through a combination of effective communication and good governance, aligned with a very personal service-driven approach.  I enjoy working with employers who are passionate about engaging employees in the importance and merits of their workplace ir pension and core benefits schemes. The employee benefits team’s mantra is to offer our clients integrity, professionalism, and years of experience.
