How and where to start

Your financial future depends on how quickly you react to market conditions. Firstly, a financial advisor in Scunthorpe will address your current circumstances. Secondly, present income, net worth, assets, liabilities, and any capital in hand are all considered. 

Finally, the advisor will determine which goals are important to make a recommendation. All advisors are authorised and regulated by the FCA.

Am I getting the correct financial advice?

A financial advisor is there to help you, and any recommendation they make should consider your circumstances. During an initial meeting, the financial advisor in Scunthorpe will ask you for detailed information about your finances. Therefore, they will recommend the options that suit you best.

Every case is different, but any recommendation should:

Be affordable for you
Consider whether you want to save for the short term, medium term, or long term
Match your attitude to risk
Be suitable for your tax situation

An advisor can only give advice in areas where they hold the proper qualifications. For example, if you are looking for advice on a final salary pension scheme, the advisor needs the correct qualification to do so.

Common reasons for using a financial advisor

  • Help and guidance on investing and saving money
  • How to use your income and savings in the most tax-efficient way
  • Financial planning when saving for a home, children's future education or starting a business
  • Starting new pensions and retirement planning
  • How to access your pension income in the best way to ensure a comfortable retirement

Expert financial planning and advice can be priceless when you are facing certain life events. Also, life can be far from predictable at times, and when you least expect it, things happen that change everything.

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.

Who can help with pension advice?

Any financial advisor in Scunthorpe certified by the FCA can give you financial advice. All our listed advisors are checked against the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) register. We list on all advisor profiles both the personal FCA reference number and the FCA reference number for your piece of mind.
