    A friend of mine has using just started using Bank of Scotland's Portfolio Management Service and has been impressed with the service so far. If I remember rightly HL were discounted at an early stage by him due to their costs.

    I would say that you should typically avoid the banks for discretionary management. They typically have higher staff turnover, are not very cheap and seem to churn for churn sake.

    I love it when I come across a bank Discretionary management as its an easy one to take off their hands :)

    You need to develop a relationship with your investment manager and having one that changes every 6-12 months is not good for your investments.
