Our story

A local firm, built on long relationships.

Sweetland Associates is an independent firm of financial advisers based at Cathedral Chambers on Stow Hill in Newport. We offer jargon-free financial planning advice to people across Newport, Cardiff and the wider South Wales area.

Our approach is straightforward. You tell us about your situation and your goals, and when you want to achieve them. We develop a practical plan to help you meet them, explain it in plain English, and agree the course of action you want to take. The final decisions are always yours.

We are a small, established firm by choice. The person who plans with you is the person who knows your story and reviews your plan year after year. Many of our clients have been with us for well over a decade, and a good number first came to us through personal recommendation.

What we stand for

The principles behind the advice.

Genuinely independent

We are independent and not tied to any provider, so our recommendations are based on what is right for you.

Plain English, always

We explain things clearly and without jargon, so you can make confident decisions about your money.

Here for the long term

We measure success in relationships, not one-off transactions, and we are here to help both now and in the future.

On your side

As your adviser, our job is to help and guide you, and to act in your best interests.
