I was introduced to Paul Lawson-Tyers at bdhSterling via First Capital Financial Services Limited (Christchurch New Zealand) as we explored the option to transfer my UK pension to NZ. Paul inspired confidence in the process, as it’s been 20 years since I was last in UK. Overseveral months working together we made all deadlines and enjoyed the process. 5 stars Paul, and thank you.

Nathan Lewis

We've been with bdhSterling for over 5 years now and have always been very pleased with their service. Paul Lawson-Tyers has been a reliable and trusted advisor who is happy to answer any of my questions. I have recently been allocated a new advisor in my home country of Australia who was keen to introduce himself over the phone. I appreciated this personal touch and I'm confident my money is in good hands.

Andy Sutton

Paul gave me great advice on consolidating my pension pots in the UK when we moved to Australia a couple of years ago. I also get ongoing advice on how best to invest the money to maximise returns. All up I found bdhSterling easy to work with and Paul explained complex concepts in a simple to understand way.

I contacted bdhSterling some 3 years ago, to transfer my UK pension over to Australia. Throughout the complex transfer they were always available to give professional & expert advice. A special mention must go to Paul Lawson-Tyers for his dedication & expert advice over this period.

Ralph Sheldon

I have dealt with bdhSterling since planning to leave the UK for Australia in 2014. I have found their advice and guidance invaluable during this difficult period due to changing HMRC laws and regulations. Paul has always been on hand to guide me through the process. We have now been transferred to the Australian branch in Sydney but will always back stop with Paul on the way forward as he has been with us from the beginning and knows what we are trying to do going forward.

Steve Whistlecroft

I have used bdhSterling for 7 years now and can't speak highly enough of their services. They helped me with the transfer of my pension to Australia and managed my remaining pension funds in the UK. A special thanks to Paul Lawson-Tyers who has been my contact throughout the whole process and advised me from the start.
