What IFA Financial Advisers Do

A financial adviser's independent or restricted status determines the breadth of products considered, and must be disclosed. Qualification and fee-disclosure requirements apply to all firms advising on retail investments.

Advice from an authorised firm carries statutory complaint and compensation routes that unauthorised advice does not.

How to Choose the Right IFA Financial Adviser

Ask about the firm's independence status, qualifications beyond Level 4, and experience with cases like yours. A defined ongoing service, documented and delivered, is what separates advice firms from asset gatherers.

Charges are typically a percentage of assets under advice, a fixed project fee or an hourly rate, agreed upfront.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an independent financial adviser and a restricted adviser?
The label is regulatory, not marketing: independent means a broad market view of retail investment products, restricted means a defined subset. The firm's disclosure documents state which applies.
How much does independent financial advice cost?
Expect a disclosed initial fee scaled to the work plus, where you take ongoing service, an annual percentage of assets commonly between 0.5% and 1%; nothing is chargeable until agreed in writing.
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?
Minimum Level 4, with Chartered and CFP designations marking advanced qualification. The FCA register lists individual advisers with their own reference numbers.
What happens if I receive bad financial advice from an IFA?
Raise it formally with the firm; regulation requires a response within eight weeks. Unresolved complaints go to the Financial Ombudsman Service, and the FSCS stands behind authorised firms that fail.
