Profile
Profile
Lighthouse Impact Limited was founded by Ash Rawal. Recognising the need for clear, concise, understandable financial information, he started his own company with a mission to provide individuals with sound independent financial advice.
One of the original Lighthouse financial practices, specialising in wealth creation and management, Lighthouse Impact Limited is part of the Lighthouse Group Plc.
Lighthouse Impact Limited is a completely independent financial business.
Ash Rawal, the managing director, was the first ever person to open an ISA in 1999. This was reported in national newspapers, including the Financial Times; The Times; The Independent; and the Sun; as well as local media such as The Derby Evening Telegraph.
He has been profiled in the centre pages of the Daily Express financial supplement as a successful private investor.
Ash graduated with an honours degree in Finance and Business in 1986; has invested his own money in a number of areas for over 25 years; and previously was a professional lecturer in finance and business for over twelve years. Prior to entering the financial services industry, he also operated two profitable businesses. He was commissioned to write an article by the UK's largest stockbroker on his successful investment philosophy.
Having gained this unique personal and professional experience, Ash believed he would be able to utilise his background and credibility to help provide people with financial advice that he did not feel was widely available.
After becoming a stockbroker, and successfully running an office for the world's largest retail stockbrokers, Ash set up his own business, Lighthouse Impact Ltd.
One achievement Ash is particularly proud of is that he has helped pioneer the ethical investment industry into one which now may be regarded as a mainstream industry.
Ash is regularly requested by BBC Radio Derby to enlighten listeners regarding important and topical financial matters. He has also appeared on BBC Television in this capacity.
Business/Company Philosophy
Affiliated to a select group of successful wealth advisers from Lighthouse Group plc, Lighthouse Impact Ltd is completely independent, and sources financial products and solutions from the whole of the financial market (not panels). This means that you, the customer will receive truly independent advice that aims to have your best financial interests at heart.
Whilst many financial companies bombard people with jargon and endless information that only confuses people, we seek to simplify financial decisions by empathising with clients' situations and then recommending pesonalised financial solutions.
We firmly believe in educating our clients with the intention that they understand their financial affairs and the consequences of their financial decisions. Time is carefully given to develop individual financial advice for our clients that suit their personal situation. By using this approach we aim to ensure our clients become more financially aware and are clearer about not only what course of action to take but also, more importantly, why they should follow that particular strategy.
After all, if you do not understand your own financial affairs, how do you know that your adviser is putting YOU first?
