COMPLAINTS POLICY

OVERVIEW

Garrington Asset Management Ltd aims to provide the highest standards of service to all our clients. 

 To ensure that these standards are being maintained, the company has a formal complaints procedure in place in the event that you do not feel that an acceptable standard was adhered to.

We would ask that our clients immediately notify us of their complaints so that we have the opportunity to put matters right.

We aim to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible. Our internal procedure provides a structure for the matter to be dealt with directly by a member of our Management Team and/or Directors. Complaints must be made in writing (by email or post) so that they can be properly investigated.

HOW AND WHERE TO COMPLAIN                                                                     

If you are unsatisfied with any aspect of our service, in the first instant please contact your Portfolio Manager directly, by letter or email.

 If your complaint relates to your Portfolio Manager, please contact the Operations Manager. Their details are available on request by calling Garrington’s Head Office on

020 7099 2773 or by emailing complaints@garringtonam.co.uk

Alternatively, please write to:

Operations Manager
Garrington Asset Management Ltd

London
W1K 5JH

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?                                                                         

Your complaint will be acknowledged within 3 working days from the date we receive notification of your complaint. Your compliant will then be investigated thoroughly in accordance with established in-house procedures. A formal reply will be sent to you within 15 working days of receipt of your complaint.

 You should register a complaint as soon as you can after the date on which the event occurred. If you complain more than twelve months later, we may not be able to investigate properly. Consideration will, however, be given as to whether you had good reason for not making the complaint sooner and whether, despite the delay, it is still possible to investigate the complaint effectively and fairly.

FURTHER INVESTIGATION                                                         

In exceptional circumstances, if you are not satisfied with the outcome of our initial investigation, you are provided with a further opportunity to have the complaint reviewed by our Managing Director at the address given below:
