As you know, 2019 was an exceptionally good year for TAM's investment performance, with some portfolios returning over 21% for the year. As such, we are delighted to have generated significant donations for our You Give We Give (YGWG) clients and their nominated charities.
Donations generated in 2019 totalled just under £55,000 which is almost equal to all previous years' donations combined, bringing the grand total to just over £110,000 donated to a wide variety of charities to date. A special thank you goes out to all the financial advisers that participate in the scheme alongside their clients and TAM.
The YGWG scheme provides investors with the opportunity to donate up to 20% of their annual portfolio profits to a charity entirely of their choice, and TAM will add to that donation with an equal percentage from our annual fees. Financial advisers can also participate alongside their client and TAM, by donating an equal percentage from their ongoing management fee.
