Nova Capital Reserve is a team of certified financial planners that specializes in strategies to maximize your wealth and financial independence.
Nova Capital Reserve was established in 1998 by Luke Edwards. The firm was set up because Richard saw there was a real need in the Essex area for affordable, professional financial planning advice.
We are one of a select group of advice practices that are truly independent. We are privately owned. We do not have financial links to any bank or other financial institutions. We have a strict "no commission" policy. The only fee's we receive are direct from clients.
Our complete independence means we remain objective and construct financial plans (or financial strategies). We recommend strategies, not products.
Our Philosophy.
We don't sell products. We provide Financial Advice.
This means, our strategic financial plans are only influenced by your needs.
Our clients are the most important stakeholders to us and are not just a means to an end.

Our Core Values
We have three core values which form the basis for everything we do
Independent
Protecting your financial interests from potential conflicts of interest
No custody — An independent custodian holds our clients' investments and creates an independent, insurmountable barrier between our firm and our clients' portfolios.
Fee only — We charge a fee for managing our clients' portfolios; it is our only compensation. We do not earn commissions, transaction fees, or other promotional or distribution fees.
No proprietary products — Since we do not create or sell proprietary products, we are free to recommend only those that deliver the best long-term results for our clients.
Integrated
