Frequently asked questions

How much does a financial advisor cost?

If you appoint a financial advisor to review your investment or pension portfolio, you may be charged a fee based on the total value of the funds. Typical percentages range from 1% to 3%. For complex cases, such as a final salary scheme, a fixed fee can be agreed upon before giving advice. Some advisors may charge you an hourly rate for certain specific services, such as calculating pension lifetime allowances.

Do I need a financial advisor?

If your pension pot is more than £30,000 and is a defined benefit scheme, you will require regulated financial advice. UK regulations mandate this requirement. Most leading UK pension providers now insist on regulated advice for transfers of this size on defined contribution schemes.
