The people behind us!
When Max Foresight was founded a year ago, the intention was never just to create another advisory firm. The aim was to build a group of people who genuinely care about the quality of advice they give and the responsibility that comes with it.
Financial planning is personal. It affects families, futures and long-term security. Behind every recommendation is judgement, experience and accountability. This anniversary feels like the right moment to focus less on the firm itself and more on the people who make it what it is.
👉 If you’re an expatriate looking for independent financial advice delivered by people who take the time to understand your situation, get in touch with Max Foresight.
Why people matter here
Advice doesn’t come from branding or systems. It comes from individuals applying experience and values to real lives.
At Max Foresight, the team was built deliberately around shared standards:
Putting clients first, even when it’s uncomfortable
Explaining clearly, without hiding behind jargon
Protecting independence at all costs
Taking responsibility for outcomes, not just recommendations
Those principles only work if the people delivering them genuinely believe in them.
The team that makes Max Foresight what it is
An Tran – Head of Administration

An is the operational backbone of Max Foresight and the reason good advice is supported by strong execution.
An studied Business Administration and spent more than six years working in banking and finance before joining the firm. She chose Max Foresight because of its client-first philosophy and strong professional values.
To An, good advice means clarity, honesty, and ensuring clients feel confident and fully informed before making decisions. Integrity is the one value she will never compromise on, and that standard runs through everything she does.
Outside of work, An enjoys travelling and cooking, experiencing different cultures and perspectives. That adaptability shows in her work, where calm organisation and attention to detail are constant.
An is also committed to professional development. Since joining Max Foresight, she has completed Chartered Insurance Institute qualifications in the UK, including the Award in Financial Planning and Customer Service in Insurance. She is focused on continuing to build her expertise while supporting clients and advisers through efficient, well-managed processes.
Hugo Delaville – Adviser

Hugo works in financial services because he believes people should take control of their financial future rather than relying entirely on systems they can’t control.
Originally from France, Hugo observed how heavily many people depend on the state for retirement planning, often without realising how frequently those rules change. His belief is that with the right structure, consistency, and advice, individuals and families can build long-term security on their own terms.
For Hugo, good advice is advice that fits a client’s real life and evolves as their circumstances change. The one value he will not compromise on is independence. Advice must be objective to be effective.
Professionally, Hugo focuses on continually improving his knowledge and staying current with market and financial developments so that his advice remains relevant and well informed.
Scott Jordan – Adviser

Scott brings experience, perspective, and a steady approach that clients quickly value.
Scott believes financial planning should provide clarity and confidence, not unnecessary complexity. His focus is on helping clients understand how their financial arrangements support their wider goals, both now and in the future.
Scott has a particular strength in pension planning, especially for expatriates who have accumulated pensions across different countries, schemes, and employers. He takes the time to help clients understand what they have, how different pension arrangements interact, and how they fit into a broader long-term retirement plan. Rather than treating pensions as isolated pots, Scott looks at how they should work together to provide sustainable income, flexibility, and security later in life.
Transparency, realism, and discipline underpin Scott’s advice. He places strong emphasis on long-term relationships and on being available and consistent, particularly when markets or life events create uncertainty.
About me

I’m Adon Beddoes, founder of Max Foresight.
After more than fifteen years in international and offshore financial services, I had a clear view of what I wanted to build and just as importantly, what I didn’t. Max Foresight was created to be a firm where advice is thoughtful, properly explained and built around long-term outcomes rather than short-term decisions.
Like many of our clients, I’m an expat, a parent, and someone balancing career choices with family priorities. That perspective shapes how I advise clients and how the firm operates day to day.
Independence, transparency, and long-term thinking aren’t marketing messages for me. They are professional standards. Max Foresight reflects the way I believe financial planning should be delivered: responsibly, calmly, and with people at the centre of every decision.
One year on
After the first year, what stands out most isn’t growth targets or statistics. It’s the relationships that have been built and the trust clients have placed in the people behind the firm.
Clients don’t remember product names or charts. They remember how clearly things were explained, whether they felt listened to and whether advice felt aligned with their lives.
That responsibility sits with people, not processes.
