Not every advisor is right for every client. Here's who we're built for.
Monverat is deliberately selective about the engagements we take on, because rigour takes time and time is finite.
Is Monverat the right fit for you?
This is for you if
- You want to understand the reasoning behind a recommendation, not just receive one.
- You're facing a specific, high-stakes decision — a business sale, an emigration, a retirement date.
- You currently hold advice from more than one source and suspect they aren't talking to each other.
- You've outgrown a bank's in-house advisory desk and want independent, fee-only guidance.
This is not for you if
- You're looking for a specific fund or product tip rather than a structured plan.
- You want the cheapest possible one-off consultation with no follow-up.
- Your primary need is bookkeeping or day-to-day accounting rather than strategic advice.
- You're not yet ready to share full financial detail — our recommendations only hold up with the full picture.
What changes depending on who you are
The core methodology stays constant. The emphasis, sequencing and technical focus shift according to your profile.
Focus shifts to entity structuring, director remuneration strategy, and succession or exit planning years ahead of the actual sale.
We prioritise exchange control compliance, financial emigration sequencing, and offshore structuring timed against SARS clearance windows.
Provisional tax planning and retirement structuring take the lead, alongside advice on incorporating versus operating as a sole proprietor.
Estate and trust planning, beneficiary alignment and intergenerational transfer strategy sit at the centre of the engagement.
Built around real decisions, not routine reviews
Every profile we serve is defined by a moment of consequence — a sale, a move, a transfer of wealth — not by a calendar date for an annual check-in.
- Entity & structuring advice Business owners
- Cross-border sequencing Expatriates
- Provisional tax & retirement Professionals
- Estate & trust planning Families
