Dean Elliott

Dean’s career in financial services began in 1994 as a financial planning consultant with Hambro Guardian in the UK.

In 2006 he took on a role with Forth Capital, employed as the very first financial advisor for the company under the two founding partners during the company’s launch phase in Geneva, Switzerland.  In his own words he recalls that decision as “… very much a gamble, but after meeting the founders I quickly realised they were both experienced in the industry and shared my vision of wanting to create a company that worked directly with clients, to build long-lasting financial planning relationships.  The gamble paid off, now look where we are as a company!”  Subsequently Dean made Partner in 2011.
