Chris Farmer

Chris is an Intermediaries Investment Manager in RBC Brewin Dolphin’s Exeter office, playing a key role within the Adviser Partnership team across the Southwest. He works closely with independent financial advisers to support their clients’ long-term plans; helping shape investment strategies that sit neatly alongside the advisers’ broader financial planning work.

After joining RBC Brewin Dolphin straight from university in 2015, Chris has built his career from the ground up. He steadily developed the technical expertise and relationship skills that define his work today. His progression to Investment Manager reflects that journey, supported by his achievement as a Chartered Wealth Manager through the CISI where he earned top marks in one of his exams and a qualification in Data Analysis/Science from Multiverse.

Now managing his own relationships, Chris is sharpening his specialism in retirement income and decumulation strategies while continuing to enhance communication and support for the advisers he works with. His goal is to deliver clear, confident investment management that strengthens the partnership between advisers and their clients, and to keep developing professionally in a way that adds real value to those he partners with.
