What IFA Financial Advisers Do

IFAs advise across pensions, investments and retirement planning, with independence status disclosed in the firm's documents. Since the Retail Distribution Review, UK investment advice is fee-based rather than commission-based, with charges agreed upfront.

Ombudsman and FSCS protection follow authorisation, which is why the register check precedes everything else.

How to Choose the Right IFA Financial Adviser

Defined benefit transfer advice requires specific FCA permissions, listed against the firm's register entry. Ongoing charges deserve scrutiny: establish exactly what service the percentage buys each year.

Expect an initial charge for the advice work plus an ongoing charge if the firm reviews the portfolio annually.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an independent financial adviser and a restricted adviser?

Independence has a regulatory definition: the firm must consider a sufficiently broad range of retail investment products across the market. Restricted firms advise from a narrower set, and the status must be disclosed before advice.

How much does independent financial advice cost?

Initial work commonly runs from several hundred pounds to the low thousands depending on complexity, with ongoing charges typically between 0.5% and 1% of assets annually; all charges must be agreed in writing before advice.

Do I need an IFA or can I manage my investments myself?

Neither answer is universal: platforms make DIY investing accessible, while advisers add value in the technical layers, tax wrappers, pension rules, estate planning, that compound at scale.

What qualifications should an IFA have?

Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning is the FCA minimum; Chartered Financial Planner and Certified Financial Planner designations indicate study beyond it. Individual advisers can be verified on the FCA register.

What happens if I receive bad financial advice from an IFA?

The route is firm complaint, then Financial Ombudsman Service: authorised firms must operate a complaints procedure and respond within eight weeks, with the Ombudsman able to award redress on eligible cases.
