What else can I do on FinancialAdvisers.co.uk

Here at financial advisers we offer several other useful functions as well as having a complete database off UK FCA regulated advisers and individuals and their associated regulatory permissions.

Financial adviser matching service

We also provide a financial adviser matching service. This service presents you with a more detailed set of questions that will segment your advice needs and capture your contact details to allow one of our panel of approved advisers to call you back within the next hour (usually) for a ‘no obligation’ review of your circumstances to see how they can help.

Each response from you will trigger specific next questions that are appropriate to your need. For example, what life change has led to your pension enquiry:

You will be asked for an estimate of the financial size of your enquiry to guage the complexity of your circumstances so we can begin to recommend a cost effective provider for your issue. There is no point paying for wealth management review charges and eating into your precious savings if your situation is more transactional and straight forward and vice versa.

You will then be asked a series of other relevant questions and finally be asked to provide contact details for your ‘No Obligation’ review.

Once submitted you will immediately receive notification of your adviser by Email and SMS and you will receive a call to answer your questions and understand your problems, hopefully within the hour. There is no obligation for this call, and we offer a satisfaction guarantee. If you don’t receive a call or it doesn’t fit your needs we will find you an alternative FREE of charge.

Name searches

We know that the FCA regulatory environment can be confusing for all, who has what permissions, who has what qualifications, where is head office, where are the individuals, and is the person I am talking to genuine and regulated. In order to help give you confidence in your chosen adviser or firm we offer a search of the entire FCA database of advisers and firms registered and trading names. Our FCA name search facility will allow you to search for advisers by name:
