Gresham Masterclass Makes a Return with Speaker from the Bank of England

Gresham Wealth

This month saw the return of the Gresham Masterclass after a long break following the pandemic.  With inflation and interest rates still at the forefront of the news agenda and affecting us all, we arranged for Ken Clark, Deputy Agent for the Bank of England in the North West, to come and speak to our advisers, technical team, and professional connections.

Ken’s presentation looked at various aspects from the Bank of England’s latest Monetary Policy Report, which was published on 2nd February. With the content ‘hot off the press’, the presentation gave a fascinating insight into the latest thinking from the Bank and how this has so far influenced decisions regarding interest rates. It also provided the opportunity for attendees to consider the direction policy makers may head in the coming months and years.

In addition to gaining CPD points for attending the Masterclass, guests also received a delicious buffet lunch.

Feedback from the event was excellent and many attendees commented how insightful the presentation was.

On behalf of all our attendees, Gresham would like to thank Ken Clark for taking time out of his busy schedule to present for us.

Plans for Gresham’s next Masterclass are already underway with a provisional date set for early summer. To provide a different perspective, we are hoping to arrange a visit from a UK fund manager. Watch this space for further updates!

I am only in this position because of you. One of the best decisions I have ever taken going with GWM.

With great thanks for all your reassuring attention over the last year. It means more to me than I can express in a few words.

I just want to thank you and your team so very much for all you do for me throughout the year. It is a real comfort to know that my investments are in such capable hands. I literally couldn’t do it on my own.

We are both very grateful for the time you spent with us in explaining various options. We certainly feel we now both have a much better understanding of our situation & the decisions which we need to consider moving forward.

Thanks again for your advice, you have given me the kick I needed to take control and I’m very grateful for that.

We feel we can phone at any time during office hours if we need anything clarifying. Our financial adviser knows our personal circumstances and is in tune with our goals and lifestyle. His advice has been and continues to be excellent.

You’ve solved that dilemma for me… Thank you for being so clear and honest as always.

A very personalised service… All advice is tailored to my needs with great consideration to issues I may not have thought of myself. I feel confident about my future finances.

Thank you so much again for your time and brilliant advice.

Just a big thank you for all you have done for our family. We do appreciate it.
