About Seb Balrow
Seb Balrow is a financial planner who helps entrepreneurs, senior executives and professionals gain clarity, confidence and long-term structure in their financial lives. With experience across private banking, wealth management and holistic financial planning, he specialises in supporting clients with complex needs, from tax-efficient profit extraction to succession strategies and advanced investment planning. Seb believes that exceptional financial advice goes far beyond managing money — it starts with understanding each client’s story, values and ambitions. He takes time to listen, ask the right questions and design personalised plans that support the goals that matter most, whether that’s selling a business, retiring early, protecting family wealth or funding future passions. His approach is shaped by one guiding principle: provide the same level of care and partnership he would want for his own family. By combining technical expertise with a calm, collaborative style, Seb helps clients make informed decisions during life’s most pivotal moments—both planned and unexpected. At Foster Denovo, Seb works closely with colleagues across the business to deliver fully integrated, end-to-end financial planning. His clients typically include business owners, consultants and contractors, senior executives and legal professionals who value clarity, structure and long-term support. Outside work, Seb enjoys reading, playing golf and padel, and—despite the emotional rollercoaster—supports Manchester United.
