As the owner of a busy advice practice, you already know how your business adds great value to clients financial outcomes - this is something we at Vanguard have evidenced a great deal over the last 20+ years in our research papers, Quantifying Adviser's Alpha, and will continue to champion going forwards. We consider this important work in context of Consumer Duty regulations and Warwick Bloore, Senior Research Specialist in Vanguard's Adviser Research Centre, will walk us through how these relate to each other. 

Consumer Duty has cast a particular spotlight on the challenges of satisfying and servicing client needs while running a profitable, growing business. The advice gap in the UK has proved insurmountable so far yet many firms are under increasing pressure to further rationalise their client banks.

To help us think about how to navigate this, we will be joined by Lifetime Financial Management, a progressive fin-tech advice business. Lifetime recognise and appreciate all the issues faced by the modern advice practice.  They are passionate about partnering with and empowering advice businesses to efficiently expand their reach, through technology and by building solutions to effectively service a currently under-served population, as well as navigating the complexities of compliance and regulation post-Consumer Duty.  

Join us for this in-person round table where we will look deeper into, and invite discussion on this challenge, particularly against the backdrop of Consumer Duty and the currently-unplugged advice gap in the UK.
