You don't need an Independent Financial Adviser - IFA to organize your money for you. We know that most of the work we do could be done by any of our customers, if they wanted to. Our customers could work out how much to save up to meet their goals and organize ISAs, pensions and life assurance to protect their hard work. They could spend their time on making good use of their tax planning opportunities, researching the many funds available, working out which funds are not too risky, and which funds will work hard enough. These are some of the tasks that we, as Independent Financial Advisers, undertake for our customers.
We definitely do it quicker, because that's all Parsonage Financial Planning do. Our customers are pleased that our advice and planning gives them time to get on with the important things. Our work is also checked by our peers and we maintain professional indemnity insurance to make sure that we are responsible for our advice.
We think we do it better – and we are grateful for our customers' kind comments that we feature here on our website.
Now, we've found out that IFA customers really get richer. The 'Value of Advice' report, published in July 2012 concluded that IFA customers are an average £2,780 richer, every year, during retirement. Using an Independent Financial Adviser, including Chartered Financial Planners, really can pay dividends.
Based in Altrincham, Parsonage Financial Planning are Chartered Financial Planners, the gold standard for Independent Financial Advice (IFA) because our Financial Advisers are more qualified, more experienced and happy to subscribe to the Chartered Insurance Institute's code of ethics for Chartered Financial Planners.

We begin by listening to your story to find out where you want to be. Assessing your attitude to risk is an important part of the process so that we can match the many products available to your preferences.
We believe that charges should be clear for the outset, that is why we publish how we charge.
