It is one of 13 ifa financial advisers listed in Keynes on this index of 1663 UK firms in the category.

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.

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

How to Choose the Right IFA Financial Adviser

For pension transfers above the statutory threshold, confirm the firm holds the specific transfer permissions. Ask what the ongoing service actually includes; an annual charge should map to a defined annual review.

Ask for the total cost of ownership: adviser charge, platform fee and fund charges combined.

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?

Self-directed investing through ISA and SIPP platforms works for many people; advice earns its fee where tax planning, pension optimisation, protection and inheritance strategy interact, which is typically at larger or more complex balance sheets.

What qualifications should an IFA have?

The regulatory floor is Level 4 (DipPFS or equivalent); many advisers carry Chartered or CFP status above it. Check the individual, not just the firm, on the Financial Services Register.

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

Complain to the firm first, which must respond within eight weeks; if unresolved, the Financial Ombudsman Service can consider the case and award compensation for eligible complaints, and firms carry professional indemnity insurance behind that.
