We recently worked with Faruk from IndexGurus to plan out our financial future, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. From the very first meeting, Faruk made us feel comfortable with his genuine and patient approach. He took the time to really listen to our concerns and goals, which immediately gave us confidence in choosing him as our advisor. His ability to break down complex financial concepts into clear, actionable steps was invaluable.

Faruk was incredibly thorough and walked us through every scenario, ensuring we had a plan that addressed retirement, funding our children’s education, and our long-term goals. He was always available to answer questions and explain things, no matter how many we had, with a level of patience that made us feel understood and reassured.

What really stood out was how Faruk’s simulations allowed us to see various scenarios, giving us peace of mind and a real sense of control over our future. Thanks to his diligent work, we now have a clear roadmap for making informed financial decisions for the rest of our lives. Most importantly, we trusted his advice and feel confident moving forward.

If you're looking for a financial advisor who listens, understands, and provides clear, actionable guidance, I highly recommend Faruk.

Faruk was very personable and sincere and it was truly a pleasure working with him!

His data gathering process was very insightful and detailed. The result was a solid financial plan, giving a complete picture from now through our retirement years, with detailed worksheets on projected income, expenses and cashflow and the target rates of return. Faruk was very generous with his time and knowledge as he walked us through the plan, always available to answer questions and go over what-if scenarios. He shared lots of useful tips and information which we would have completely missed out on otherwise. Working with Faruk has provided us with a forward-looking perspective, so we can now have a more informed and targeted approach to investing and also a plan to track our progress.

We came away from the whole experience feeling positive and much more confident. We will definitely stay in touch with Faruk for any planning/managed investing services that we may need in the future.

Being a British expat, my finances are complicated. Faruk has supported me several times now, each time with great success. He also has the patience to explain the things that I don’t understand. On top of that he is very good company and easy to talk to.
I can confidently highly recommend him.
Thanks for everything Faruk!

Going with Faruk with Index Gurus will guarantee you a thorough and comprehensive service for your financial planning needs. I went from completely confused to a solid working idea of what I needed and what was available to me to comfortably plan my retirement and future large purchases. The other reviews on this site will also lend testament to Faruk's excellent advertised service. What I'd like to focus on is Faruk's aftercare mentality-he doesn't leave you hanging and lost and he's committed to the continuing financial health of his clients.
Just days after we completed our service agreement, my employer suddenly dropped a contract change upon my inbox and I had absolutely no background to navigate the new terms and conditions. Faruk guided me through that black box of mystery and helped me understand the nuances of what was being changed, as well as advice on how to navigate that minefield. He responded to last minute desperate calls and late night emails (contract had a ridiculous timeline) and through it all, he was the voice of reason and perspective.
It is that care and commitment that makes his service outstanding. I think any CFP worth their salt will give you good guidance for future planning, what makes Index Guru distinct is Faruk's genuine care that his clients succeed in all financial aspects.
