Agnostic Adviser is an independent, evidence-led consultancy helping advisory firms elevate their investment governance, research capability and client experience to a multi-family-office level. Founded by Dean Swindell and Brenda Swindell, we bring over 40 years of combined experience across discretionary investment management, product design and governance, adviser enablement, regulated banking and UHNW client service.
To help financial planners deliver a private-bank-quality client experience without the bias, cost or constraints of tied propositions.
Advisers should own their proposition, not rent it. We help you build something neutral, defensible, scalable and tailored.
