Great to see the continued investment and long-term vision at True Potential.

This isn’t just about a new building — it’s about commitment to people, innovation, and the future of financial advice. Proud to be part of a business that’s focused on growth and delivering better outcomes for clients every day.

Exciting times ahead. 🚀

Today marks an important milestone for True Potential as our CEO Gerry Mallon formally opened our new staff building alongside colleagues.

The opening represents growth and a long-term commitment to the North East, it’s people and future. Gateway House is a statement of confidence in the long-term future we are building together. As one of the North East's most significant financial services employers, True Potential is a long-term anchor for the region.

Thank you to all the people who made this moment possible.

I haven’t shared much publicly about my move to True Potential Wealth Management, but it feels like the right time to do so.

The last year has been a journey. Challenging, humbling, and ultimately one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I can now say with complete confidence that joining True Potential was absolutely the right choice.

The culture, the support, and the people have made it feel like home from day one. I’m surrounded by a team that shares my values of integrity, transparency, and putting clients first.

To my clients, family, and friends who’ve supported me through it all — thank you. The messages, trust, and encouragement mean more than you’ll ever know.

Here’s to the next chapter — helping families build clarity, confidence, and control over their finances, from my new home at True Potential Wealth Management.

Higher interest rates has meant securing funding to invest in growth is harder for businesses – so you need to place emphasis on corporate quality as well as the narrative in numbers.

Quality comes from the factors that drive the long-term value in your firm, such as a healthy cash flow, quality of earnings, agility, innovation and intellectual property, in addition to strong profits.

To improve quality, you should look at what makes your business attractive to clients and investors, and the processes and strategies that will build on this.

You may think that you’ll only need financial advice if you’re fortunate enough to come into a lot of money, or if you’re a higher rate taxpayer. Especially since the government has already flagged a ‘painful Autumn Budget’ ahead to bridge the £22bn ‘black hole’ it inherited.

Staying on track with your long-term financial goals is even more challenging if prices rise too, and you need to dig deeper to pay the bills.

Financial advice helps you control your spending in a short-term squeeze, and make sure you’re set for a more comfortable financial future in the longer term.
