Finding an independent Financial Adviser
Independent Financial Advisers are completely independent of any bank, financial institution or insurance
company, which means they can give unbiased advice in recommending financial services to
best meet personal needs.
The following sites provide search facilities for Independent financial
advisers. You can input your postcode to find an independent financial
adviser near you:
IFA Promotion -
IFAP has been running for over 15 years and promotes the benefits of
independent financial advice to consumers and businesses.
The Personal Finance
Society - searches AFPC qualified independent financial advisers who are
members of the society.
MyLocalAdviser
- includes all Independent Financial Advisers, plus other investment,
mortgage and insurance intermediaries in the UK - over 25,000!
You may care to take a look at the
Financial Services Authority (FSA) website. All IFAs have to be
registered with the FSA and this provides you with the reassurance that IFAs
are regulated and taken to task if their advice to you can be shown to be
not in your best interests. If this is the case, you may well get
compensation through the FSA.
