David MacLaren
BA (Hons)

David is the consummate professional when it comes to financial planning and investing.
He has a straight forward approach and will guide you through all aspects of what can be a financial minefield, and if he cannot he will bring other members of the highly skilled team at Abacus in to support and guide.
I cannot recommend David highly enough, so much so that I have personally recommended him and Abacus to a number of my friends and colleagues.
For any non financial qualified individuals, David breaks it down into layman’s language and will take time to explain the more complex aspects as required.
Would highly recommend David to anyone looking for insightful, professional and honest financial advice.

David is passionate about making sure whatever your goals are he finds the right solution for you. A truly outstanding difference to the one-size-fits-all approach usually seen. I have been a happy customer of David’s for the last five years and recommend him to everyone looking for honest and well thought through advice.

In an industry that has its detractors David is a breath of fresh air - honest, reliable, knowledgeable and just a really decent and likeable person! He has given me straight and relevant advice on a number of aspects of my financial planning and recommends actions based on what is best for me and not what is in it for him. It is my absolute pleasure to recommend David, and Abacus, unreservedly.

David is a very clear and straight forward person to deal with. He made certain that both I and my Wife knew precisely what we were looking at with the options discussed and assisted greatly with our decision making. We would without doubt reccomend him to work with and look forward to continuing to work with him in the future

David has been my personal financial consultant since mid 2015. Since my first meeting with David he has immersed himself in understanding my needs, my investments and the jurisdictions where I work, where I am from and where I have significant connections to and aligned my portfolio to achieve growth within the risk universe I am comfortable with. I have been working in the international financial industry for well over 20 years. Professionals like David are rare, sorely needed and much appreciated. I am happy to recommend David as a very knowledgeable and ethical financial consultant.
