Top notch organisation
Top notch organisation! Attention to detail is always a big plus in the world of finance and giving sound advice to make sound decisions creates success on investments. That's what you get at Holborn! Lourens has been providing me with financial advice for a good 15 years and a great relationship has been built on solid advice, great investment and above all, a great amount of trust! Lourens has helped build an amazing team at Holborn who are very professional in their work and quick to make things happen. Lourens could not do what he does without having strong support behind him, and a special mention should be made to Kathy who has been there throughout the journey communicating and organising and keeping everything on track. And of course cant forget the odd lunch which always goes down well! A great team to be associated with, without doubt!

Thank you for such a thoughtful and heartfelt review, Jonathan! We are truly honoured by your continued trust and support over the past 15 years. It is wonderful to hear how Lourens' expert guidance, paired with the dedication and professionalism of the entire Holborn team—especially Kathy—has made a lasting impact. We could not agree more: behind every great adviser is a strong, capable team making things happen. We are so pleased to have built such a solid relationship with you, both professionally and personally (and yes, the occasional lunch is always a bonus!). Here is to many more years of shared success!

The holborn experience was great because of their high level of professionalism, Nyasha in particular was very helpful, she organised my meetings with their management when I was in Cape Town and also ensured that there was a platform to communicate and follow up on discussions seamlessly after I left South Africa.

Excellent Customer Service
Overall, it was an excellent experience with an exceptional eye for detail. Moving assets out of the US has been a lengthy process, but the team has been very responsive to all my questions. They have made me feel amazingly comfortable working with them in what can be a stressful experience.
