Traprain Financial was founded in 2020 by Rachel Stewart after 15 years as a practicing lawyer. Rachel had a vision based around a hill near her home - Traprain Law (which would eventually become the namesake of the business). This vision was fueled by her experience of (unsuccessfully) trying to find a financial adviser during her law career.

The story behind the namesake begins with Rachel having spent many happy days running and walking with her family on Traprain Law. These memories of loved ones and the happy times spend in the great outdoors inspired Rachel's approach to financial advice. The feeling, that 'wealth' had more to do with loved ones, health and lifestyle than anything else, was what drew her to start the business when she could not find another financial adviser who approached advice in this way.

This distinct and down to earth approach can be seen in the many wonderful client reviews on VouchedFor.

Traprain Financial aims to provide jargon free, in-depth and all round financial advice.
