Since then, his goal of delivering a holistic service that smooths the way to better financial and estate planning support led him to set up CTT in 2003, alongside fellow director Clive Ponder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>20 years on, CTT is a nationally recognised centre of excellence, with Bob continuing to work as an IFA and a Practising Trust and Estate Practitioner (TEP) at the helm of CTT\u2019s Private Client.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<a\n\tclass=\"btn btn-primary \"\n\trole=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/bob-massey-dippfs-tep-b2ab5260\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttarget=\"_blank\"\n\t\t\t\trel=\"noopener\"\n\t\t \n>\n\tConnect with Bob\n\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"standard-content container wp-block \">\n\t\t<div class=\"content\">\n\t\t\t<div>\n<p><span class=\"normaltextrun\">The recent recipient of a Chamber of Commerce award for his service to the sector, Bob insists the secret to success is a tireless desire to improve and deliver. He prides himself on captaining a thinktank of extraordinary practitioners, all of whom bring something special to the table, offering new ideas and approaches to push industry standards forward and improve CTT Private Client\u2019s elite services.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"normaltextrun\">Making financial planning accessible and easy for clients to understand is the driving force behind Bob\u2019s approach to the services and advice his team provide directly to clients and the same for the professional partners of the group in helping them to keep their clients. His individual, tailored service and step-by-step guidance allows clients to gain real insight into the bespoke strategies he employs while enjoying tangible financial growth and greater peace of mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span class=\"normaltextrun\">He believes that alongside skills and knowledge, listening to clients and understanding their needs is one of the most important qualities of an advisor. Bob\u2019s ability to empathise with his clients and his willingness to spend time getting to know them, sets him apart as one of the leading practitioners providing expert advice to the country\u2019s high-net-worth individuals. His priority is always to provide solutions, not sell products, while offering services that see him continuing to work with clients through the generations.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"wrapper\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"inner-wrapper before-bg-color\">\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":5506,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5512","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
