What on earth does a financial adviser actually do?
Throughout your life you will come across key milestones that create financial challenges. We help clients overcome these challenges so they can achieve what they want from life. However, the biggest threat we face in helping others progress in life, is that people, through no fault of their own, don't understand the role financial advice plays in building, maintaining and protecting wealth. In 2019 the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) reported that only 8% of UK adults received financial advice. So in the last few years we started giving more knowledge away for free. Everyone has access to Unividual's free financial planning guides, news articles and videos. It isn't just Unividual on this mission though. Our clients are also passionate about the role financial advice has to play in society and wellbeing. They have shared their financial planning journey case studies so you can understand how affordable financial advice is and the role a financial adviser plays in reducing stress, so together we can improve your financial situation and safeguard you against your biggest financial fears. If you would like to understand what on earth we actually do please over head to unividual.co.uk or give me a call on 0330 353 0150

Five things to consider BEFORE making an investment
1. Current financial situation: sit down and do a full financial review - earnings, debt, savings etc
2. Strengths and weaknesses: a bit of soul-searching about what you want out of life can help you achieve your investment goals.
3. Consider your risk profile: with investments, there is no such thing as a ‘sure-fire’ winner so you’ll need to think about the risk your investments carry and how that risk makes you feel if the value goes up or down.
4. The term of your investment: when might you need access to your money and how long do you want it invested
5. The ethical considerations that are important to you
