Bristol
Local Financial Planner in Bristol
Bristol has been home to Paradigm Norton since our founding date, and from our office here, our Bristol-based team of Chartered Financial Planners and Chartered Tax specialists, work together to provide integrated advice that supports every stage of life.
We take a responsible and evidence based approach to investment, investing based on academia, not stories, and investing with people and planet in mind.
Innovation is at the heart of how we plan. We don’t see financial planning as a spreadsheet exercise, but as a way to liberate people to pursue their wider life goals, interests and passions. Above all, our aim is to deliver financial plans that evolve wealth into the life our clients want to live.

Who are Paradigm Norton?
Financial planning is personal, shaped by the people you care about, the choices you make and the life you want to lead.
That belief runs through everything we do, from how we listen and plan with you, to the way we run our own business as an employee-owned, purpose-driven team.
Over the years, we’ve grown to more than 90 people across three offices, each site united by a commitment to measure success by more than profit alone.
We have been proudly employee-owned since 2019, and as a Certified B Corporation, we hold ourselves accountable across governance, the way we look after our people, our environmental impact, and how we give back to the places we live in.
One clear expression of this is the Paradigm Norton Trust. Since 2007, we’ve given more than £600,000 to nearly 300 charities, including small local organisations and international causes where every donation has extra impact.
It’s part of how we live our values: combining financial expertise with genuine care.
