Pension Finder Services

Our targeted approach to finding pension professionals ensures you spend less time looking, and more time planning your retirement solutions.. Our service makes searching for and selecting an advisor simple and easy.

Appointing the right specialist pension advisor is such an important decision. Over the last few years we have assisted many clients to make this decision much easier. In 2011 we assisted over 600 people.

By using our Pension Finder Service, clients are then better placed and more focused to tackle more important detailed pension decisions involving risk, reward, investment decisions and product selection.

We help alleviate any concerns you may have by answering certain questions, including whether the advisor is regulated by the FSA or holds appropriate levels of PI insurance. You can then focus on the personal connection, whether you feel comfortable and confident in the advisor as an individual.

While the advisors focus on building long term relationships, our priority is to support a simple yet profoundly effective introduction. Clients and advisors alike can now get on with what they do best, advising and deciding on effective pension strategies, while building a stronger financial future.

Choosing SIPP Providers
April 14th, 2011 | Solutions Online

SIPP ProvidersSIPP providers are for those fed up with non-performing traditional pensions. Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPs) place the power firmly in the hands of the saver. With a SIPP, an investor can choose his or her own investments without having to worry about interference from financial institutions, or huge amounts of money that cannot be moved quickly. With the introduction of the low-cost SIPP, this option has been opened to thousands of people for the first time.

A Labyrinth Of Fees

Naturally, SIPP providers vary in terms of what they offer which is why the services of an independent financial advisor can come in particularly useful. The first thing to look at is the set-up fee. Some SIPP providers charge up to £500 while others offer this service for free. Also, SIPP annual management fees vary. This is an insidious charge that slowly eats your savings away. Do not choose SIPP providers that charge an annual fee of more than 1.5% unless you have a really good reason to do so.

Funds, Oeics and unit trusts may be hit with a 5% charge by some providers but it is possible to find companies that charge nothing. Transferring money from another pension to a SIPP could be more trouble than it is worth, especially among SIPP providers that charge excessively high fees. If you elect to move money from the SIPP to another account, this too could be hit with an extra fee. The investments available through different SIPP providers vary greatly, so make sure you choose a provider that caters for any of your specific wants. Finally, the interest rate offered varies among companies. It is possible to be stuck with a miserly 0.1% interest rate with other organisations offering amore generous 4%.

As you can see, the range of fee charged by SIPP providers varies with the wrong decision liable to cost you hundreds if not thousands of pounds over the course of your life. This is why an independent financial advisor is necessary. These professionals will uncover every fee and charge associated with all SIPP providers in the UK thus helping you choose the best company for your personal needs.
