The ongoing advice landscape is changing rapidly. Fee for no service has brought in an influx of new regulation in 2020, with advisers required to renew agreements annually and be more transparent about the services they provide and the fees they charge.
Amidst this, ongoing advice still remains a focal point for advisers that want their clients to achieve their financial goals. From revisiting risk attitudes, to assessing changes in current positions and making necessary adjustments, advisers need to ensure that they are acting in their clients’ best interests, while at the same time understanding how to navigate this complex regulatory landscape.

Our mantra of ‘enabling people to achieve financial freedom and live their best life’ means that we want our advisers to focus on what is most important – creating value for clients. We take care of the rest.
