As a reputable and highly rated financial adviser in Leeds (please see our client and Vouchedfor reviews here), we will tell you what services we offer and we can confirm that we are an independent financial adviser. The phrase ‘independent financial adviser’ has a specific meaning that is set out in the rules that financial advisers have to follow as stipulated by their regulator the financial conduct authority.
To be classed as independent, we must be able to offer an unbiased, broad range of retail investment products and offer consumers unrestricted financial advice based on a truly comprehensive and fair analysis of the whole market.
For your information, a ‘restricted’ financial adviser tend to only be able to offer a limited range of investment products or products from a limited number of providers. Therefore, a restricted financial adviser does not provide an unbiased service or range of products, which could limit the investment products they can offer you.
Just to make it clear, Clarity Wealth Limited is an independent financial advice company based in Leeds, offering financial advice to people across the UK.
