Our proprietary framework for Financial Planning
Our cutting edge framework
3Castles 2Knights focuses clients on matters they can control and minimises matters they cannot.
We have extensively studied the strongest ideas in wealth management and financial planning from around the world and combined them to form our own exclusive framework for the Irish Market.
Depending on the profile of the client we organise different assets of a client’s wealth into three distinct castles. Each castle plays a distinct role in both growing and preserving your personal balance sheet.
