About Us

Here at Oaksmith, we provide personalised advice to individuals, families, businesses and trustees across the North Wales region and beyond. We care about what matters to our clients, and put your goals and financial well-being at the heart of everything we do. 

Located in Hawarden, we offer the hands-on, friendly approach of a relationship-based business with the peace of mind that our advice is guaranteed by a leading wealth management company in St. James's Place. 

We launched in 2021, with the simple aim of giving our clients – and their loved ones – financial peace of mind. Having worked as a financial adviser for a number of years within another St. James's Place Practice, our Director, Alex Smith, decided to carve his own path. He wanted to create a financial advice service with a difference. A straight-talking service with no confusing jargon. A service that doesn’t sell on either fees or performance and therefore provides advice based on what’s best for each individual. A service that’s proactive and doesn’t wait for clients to call. And so, Oaksmith was born. We pride ourselves on our friendly, accessible and transparent approach to financial planning, with a focus on building long-term relationships through face-to-face advice. We see financial advice as collaborative – we’re here to support you in making your own choices. We do so with regular planning and review meetings, which allow us to gain a deeper understanding of what’s important to you.
