Your Team

Our company ethos at Tingley & Cooper is ‘independence of choice’.

Tingley and Cooper provide ‘Independent Advice’ which means we are able to consider all types of retail investment products and products from all firms across the whole market, which could meet your needs and objectives.   

Our clients and their children, including companies, who come back time after time, many of whom have now become friends as well, are the people who, like us, really appreciate our specialist knowledge, enthusiasm and respect the help combined with the holistic advice they receive along with the personal service too.

For the past two decades the Directors have thrived.  One of the main reasons for this is that we have always been specialists.  We are enthusiastic, live and breathe investments, both onshore and offshore, pension planning, family protection, IHT and capital gains tax mitigation.

We welcome clients who want to be informed and we are confident about the quality of our independent, free from any restrictions advice. To back this up, give you peace of mind, we can organise for new clients to speak to any of our clients at random direct to confirm these facts. We are happy to arrange a meeting without any obligation, on both parties.
