Advisory service resolves Britons' financial problems in France

DTB Wealth Management and the VIA Group network joined forces to create the ultimate advisory service to British expatriates in France. International financial advisor Daniel Butcher explains:

“We belong to a specific profession in France called Conseil en Gestion de Patrimoine (CGP).

“This means that we are highly qualified and regulated to provide analyses and solutions across financial, legal, social and real estate matters.

“Our team includes notaires and consultants who have at least a master’s degree (or Bac +5) in family and notarial international law.

“Because we are totally independent, we offer unbiased recommendations on a broad range of investment opportunities and we’ll give you full, hands-on support every step of the way.

“We are experts at navigating the legal quirks and hurdles of French administration – particularly if you are transferring assets from the British system.

“We can help you repatriate your UK Pension schemes in the Eurozone and we specialise in QROPS solutions dedicated to French expats.

Each client needs bespoke solution

The consultancy is run by British expats who have lived most of their lives in France, with a completely bilingual team.

This combination of personal and cultural experience of France and the UK, combined with high-calibre CGP credentials, means they are uniquely positioned to provide you with the serious and carefully crafted solutions you need.
