Hewison Insights

In this interview Hewison Private Wealth, Managing Director, Andrew Hewison speaks with Glenn Fairbairn about the direct investment philosophy and how certain investments make it onto the Hewison APL (Approved Product List).

I had an interesting conversation last week with a business contact, who is also a client. It was around life insurance and the underlying reluctance to reduce his current insured sum. He said to me, “don’t people just always have their life insurance?” In short, the answer is, no, not always.
