We offer a "business in a box" solution that prepares, tests, and readies your new proposition for launch.

Two World First's Rolled In To One Groundbreaking Idea

An Academy Exclusive: New Advice Paradigm plus Consumer-Centred App.

Advice-only Financial Planning places a wall between advice and products.

World's first advice-only financial planning network. Our initial assumption is that consumers can self-educate on every aspect of personal finance and financial planning. They need self-help tools, templates, and the lightest touch of coaching and support.

Customer-centred Open Banking-integrated financial planning app.

World's first consumer-centred financial planning app integrated with open banking. Our initial assumption is most of the time, people should do things for themselves with the right support. That's all consumers need in a commoditised investment market.

Financial planning is generic advice and is therefore regulated by general consumer law in the UK, including the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 and the Consumer Protection (Amendment) Regulations 2014, and is regulated by the Competition and Markets Authority. We place a wall between financial planning and advice relating to a particular investment. We do not give advice relating to a particular investment. Where financial planning is given in the course of or in preparation for an activity regulated under s22 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, such as advice relating to a particular investment, it is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. This distinction is why we are regulated by the Competition and Markets Authority, not the Financial Conduct Authority. Without exception, we do not arrange or bring about deals, make arrangements with a view to a transaction, or cause dematerialised instructions relating to any investment business. We do not advise borrowers about the liquidation of debt. Our planning services are designed as a stand-alone service. If you want financial products, these can be accessed either directly from the market or via financial intermediaries. If you are looking for a personal recommendation for an investment product, you should consult a licensed investment adviser.

 

In plain English, we sell plans, not products.
