1-to-1 Investor Education with Alpesh Patel OBE

Self-directed investors manage their own money, with their own broker. Many find that books and videos only go so far, and that talking concepts through with an experienced educator helps them understand what they are reading.

What 1-to-1 education covers
- How markets work: shares, funds, bonds and how prices are formed.
- Research methods: reading company accounts, factsheets and key ratios.
- Risk: diversification, position sizing and the different types of investment risk.
- Discipline: keeping records, writing down your reasons and reviewing your own decisions.
What it is not
The sessions are education. Alpesh does not manage money for clients and is not an IFA, broker or fund manager. Sessions do not provide personal recommendations, and you make your own decisions.

Important: this article is education and information only. It is not financial advice or a personal recommendation, and it does not take your circumstances into account. The value of investments and pensions can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you put in. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Figures were correct when the article was written and may have changed. If you are unsure what is right for you, speak to a regulated financial adviser.
