Our Team

Andrew Whiteley Dip PFS
In 2007, having become disillusioned with the charges and underperformance of both retail investment funds and discretionary fund managers, Andrew set about developing a new Wealth Management service. Starting with a blank canvas he identified the significant cost advantages offered by Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) and decided that they would be ideal components of the multi-asset portfolios that he was keen to develop. These portfolios – hosted on a number of “wrap” platforms – are run on an advisory basis and now sit at the heart of the Provisio wealth management service.
Andrew is an Affiliate of Resolution and often acts as a financial neutral in collaborative divorce proceedings.
Away from work Andrew is a keen fan of all sports, but these days is limited to the occasional set of tennis…

Philip Bailey Dip PFS, IMC, Cert (Disc)
As a former active discretionary investment manager, he found that it was becoming more and more difficult to add value to client portfolios. The returns generated for clients did not justify the fees charged. As a result, he came to the conclusion that low cost, passive fund management was a more attractive proposition for clients and so he joined Provisio.
Philip is married and lives in Northamptonshire. His hobbies are yacht racing and the £/Euro exchange rate (he is renovating an old farmhouse in France!)
