Helping you grow, protect and enjoy your wealth.
We've managed pensions, investments and protection for families across Buckinghamshire and beyond since 1986. Many clients have been with us for over 20 years,
and have tripled their portfolios with us.
Independent, whole-of-market advice since 1986.
Independent Financial Planning (Anglia) Ltd is an FCA-regulated, independent financial advisor based in Milton Keynes, serving clients across Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, and throughout the UK.
With over 35 years of experience, we help individuals plan, protect, and grow their financial future. We specialise in pension advice, retirement planning, and ongoing investment reviews to ensure your money continues to work for you.
As an independent practice, we are not tied to any bank, insurer or fund house, so every recommendation is drawn from the whole market. That means you get the product that genuinely suits your circumstances, rather than the one your adviser happens to sell.

Portrait of John Clewlow
John Clewlow
Independent Financial Adviser · Founder
I offer expert, independent guidance across investment and retirement planning — and I proactively review every client's portfolio every three months, so it stays aligned with your goals as markets and circumstances change.
Whether it's building a portfolio from scratch, ongoing management, or pension and annuity advice, I take a tailored approach. Retirement planning is a particular focus, including Pension Drawdown and the Open Market Option, so you can approach it with clarity rather than guesswork.
What our clients say on Google.
My long-term finances have been overseen by John Clewlow for well over 20 years. He has recommended changes to my investment portfolio four times each year, and succeeded in growing my pension pot to three times its initial value. If, like me, you really don't understand finance, investments and the stock market, I unhesitatingly commend John Clewlow to you as a gentleman with outstanding financial acuity.
Through financial crisis, wars and Covid he has somehow managed to keep our fund growing overall. I have no idea what you do John, but please keep doing it!
The markets are regularly reviewed and changes made to my portfolio to ensure maximum returns whilst minimising risk. He fully explained what the costs were and what to expect.
Regular updates, reviews and suggested changes have seen my pension portfolio grow well above my regular contributions. Always totally professional in his advice.
He has consistently supported us, managing our pensions and life cover with care and reliability. Approachable, dependable, and always available when we need him.
