Respected local financial planner set to join Start

Chesterfield-based Start Financial Planning is to further strengthen its team with the appointment of respected local financial expert Peter Blant.

Peter boasts more than 20 years’ experience in the financial advice industry having worked throughout the UK for a number of leading firms as well as locally.

A specialist in Inheritance Tax Planning and Corporate Protection, he joins Start next month as a financial planner where he will work alongside directors Steve Taylor and Michael Heath to deliver independent financial advice and solutions for clients.

Peter was attracted to the role by Start’s forward approach to financial planning using the latest technology, as well as industry experience, to consistently deliver returns across a number of markets for clients.

Commenting on his appointment Peter said: “I am very excited to join Start. Locally, the firm is acknowledged and respected for its forward-thinking approach to financial planning. In light of recent political events and the economic turmoil nationally and globally, Start’s scientific approach to investment is able to take into account the constantly changing market conditions. This approach, I am confident, will protect investors when the bubble eventually bursts.

“Protecting their clients’ money is at the very core of what Start does; and this was a major consideration when I chose to join the team.”

Welcoming Peter to Start, Michael Heath added: “We are delighted that Peter will be joining the Start team. He has worked within the local financial services industry for a number of years and at one point, I worked alongside him. He shares Start’s values and is committed to delivering excellent customer service and sound, independent financial advice. We know he will be an excellent fit in our growing team.”

Outside work, Peter who lives in Brookside in Chesterfield and is married with three young children, is a coach of the under 7s team at Chesterfield Panthers Rugby Club. He is also Chair of the Chesterfield Satellite Rotary Club and Treasurer of local charity Deaf Hearing Support which he became involved with through his father who was born profoundly deaf.
