Financial Advice

Our independent advisers can help you navigate financial planning with the knowledge and confidence to make the right decisions

What is financial advice?

Financial advice is where an expert regulated adviser gives you recommendations tailored to your individual circumstances, goals and financial situation.

You’ll stay in complete control. It’s up to you whether or not you take their advice. But they’ll make clear recommendations and help you understand why they think they’re the right thing to do.

Over 14,000 companies trust our independent advisers to provide financial advice to their employees. All our advisers are fully qualified and regulated, so you can be confident you’re always in safe hands.

Can our advisers help you?

Our advisers offer personalised financial advice as a paid-for service. That can be very helpful if you:

  • want to fully understand your financial options, now or in the future
  • have complicated questions or just want to understand the basics
  • want to be sure that you’re making the most of what you have

Retirement might be round the corner, or decades away. Financial advice can keep your retirement goals on track, or help you start taking an income.
