The Brand

Built on Truth. Proven by Action.

At Norman Taylor SRA, integrity isn't a slogan, it's our baseline. We don’t sugarcoat, we don’t hedge, and we never hide.

In a world where advisors often say what’s comfortable, we say what’s necessary. And when we’re wrong, we own it, fast, openly, and with accountability,
because real leadership starts with truth, even when it’s inconvenient.
 
The Leaders Who Lived It
 
Norman Taylor, Founder, Special Risks Advisor
 
Former Secret Intelligence Service agent. Global insurance and risk advisor.

Norman built a career in the shadows, protecting assets, reputations, and lives. Now, he leads from the front, transforming experience into clarity for others. His story, told in "HOLDING YOU COVERED", is raw, personal, and painfully honest. That’s what makes it real.

🎖️ Iain McNeil OBE, Principal Consultant, Strategic Advisor
 
Brigadier. Commander. Boardroom strategist.

Iain’s leadership journey spans military operations and modern governance. He’s led troops into danger and advised CEOs at the edge of change. His discipline, humility, and vision ensure our clients make decisions that withstand time, pressure, and scrutiny.
 
If what you’re facing is complex. What we offer is simple: the truth, the plan, the action.
 
From billion-pound M&A deals to real-time crisis response, from political risk to personal security, we’re not guessing.

We’ve been there.

And we’re here to walk you through it, with clarity, speed, and zero tolerance for fluff. 
 
What Our Brand Means To You

Accountability
 
We admit mistakes. We fix them. Fast.

Experience
 
Decades of intelligence, military, and financial leadership.

Truth-Telling
 
We tell clients what they need to hear, not what they want.

Impact
 
Our work protects lives, capital, and reputations around the world.

This isn’t marketing. It’s a mission.

If your decisions carry weight, we’re your team.

In risk, there are no redos. No second drafts. One decision can end a career, or save a life.

At Norman Taylor SRA, we’ve walked the corridors of power and the shadows of crisis. We’ve made mistakes, and we’ve learned from them.

We built a firm not to be liked, but to be trusted. Not to follow, but to lead.
 
If you’re walking into risk, you’d better bring someone who’s walked through worse.

Norman Taylor SRA
Every Risk. Every Realm. Every Time.

Every Risk. Every Realm. Every Time.
