A Fylde-based financial services company is celebrating a record annual turnover figures.
Questa Financial Services (www.questafs.co.uk) on Whitehills Business Park in Blackpool has enjoyed growth of almost 30% with turnover increasing from just over half a million to £650,000 in 2010. The figures confirm the best trading performance since the company was formed in 2007.
Questa managing director Anthony Hoskisson said,
“We’re absolutely delighted with last year’s performance. Like all businesses we were aware that the recession could present challenging trading conditions. We considered planning for consolidation, but in the end we went for growth. And the results are now there for all to see.”
In addition to the annual turnover record, the total value of customer funds controlled by Questa has risen from £60 million to £80 million. This growth represents the combined effect of both new client instructions and investment performance.
Questa, which employs 15 people, is now targeting further growth and a target client investment portfolio valued at more than £100 million over the next 2 years. This will reinforce Questa’s position as the Fylde coast’s largest independent financial services company.
Anthony added,
“We won a lot of new business last year because of our commitment to fee-based charges. Clients tell us they prefer the transparency in our charging structure. Our trading success is also testament to the skill and dedication of our staff – and the faith and trust our clients old and new have placed in them.
“We’re very grateful and can’t wait to try and beat it in 2011!”
