In the UK, the average fees for financial advice are 2.4% of the amount invested for the initial advice and 0.8% per annum for ongoing advice.
Our initial advice charge depends on the amount invested/transferred. If you are looking for advice on pensions/investments totaling £100,000 our initial fee would be 2.25%. This would drop to 1.88% on £200,000, 1.2% on £500,000, and 0.97% on £1m. Read more…
Generally, yes. Various studies have shown that those who take financial advice are better off in the long run than those who do not. If you are looking at simple cash products like savings accounts or Cash ISAs, it is unlikely to be worth taking advice.
No. Until 2012 financial advisors could be paid via commission, which gave the impression that advice was free. Since 2012, commission is no longer allowed on investment products and therefore financial advisors charge a fee for their services.
