Where we’ve come from<br />

1st Ethical Limited was formed in October 2001, as a FCA<br />

regulated, boutique wealth advisory firm specialising in Islamic<br />

pensions and investments tailored for high net worth individuals.<br />

We soon realised there was an opportunity to also <strong>of</strong>fer wills and<br />

trust based tax planning, which in turn led to a second firm<br />

being formed; 1st Ethical Tax Consulting Limited.<br />

It soon became apparent tax planning was the one area with<br />

greatest growth potential.Consequently in circa 2007, we took a<br />

big strategic decision to focus all our energies in the tax domain<br />

and accordingly rebranded 1st Ethical Tax Consulting to <strong>OneE</strong>.<br />

The name <strong>OneE</strong> is actually derived from 1st Ethical (we changed<br />

the 1st, to One and shortened Ethical to E).<br />

1st Ethical itself was converted to an educational charity<br />

focusing on financial literacy and social responsibility, and has<br />

donated £5M+ to good causes thus far, almost all <strong>of</strong> which was<br />

donated to it in turn by <strong>OneE</strong>.<br />

By focusing exclusively on tax advisory services to small<br />

businesses and their owners , <strong>OneE</strong> was able to quickly<br />

establish itself nationally a leading tax advisory firm, and<br />

enjoyed stellar year and year growth over the period 2007 –<br />

2013, recgonised by a string <strong>of</strong> prestigous national awards.<br />
