The Perpetual IFA Charter

Advice-First Principle

Initial Meeting Policy Free of Charge & No Obligation

"We offer independent, unbiased financial advice."

Our Approach

Perpetual Independent Financial Advice very much believes in the principle of giving advice rather than just selling a product. Professional advice is provided jargon free and practical to the client’s current need and requirements in the future; and your initial meeting is free of charge.

We aim to build up a long term relationship with its clients in order to assist them along their financial life stages and to do this we provide regular reviews of your finances so we are always up to date with current wishes and are able to adapt life changes as they happen.

We work on a fee basis – or commission basis where appropriate, or a combination of both. This will be discussed at our initial meeting, and you are under no obligation when we meet.

How We Protect Your Interests

  • No Hidden Quotas As independent advisers, we are under zero pressure to promote specific financial institutions or proprietary funds.
  • Transparent Remuneration All fees and options are clearly explained before any chargeable work begins. No surprises, no hidden deductions.
  • Proactive Annual Reviews Markets shift and family situations change. We conduct regular portfolio evaluations to keep your plans aligned with reality.

The Three Pillars of Service

Our advisory structure is anchored in three clear, unwavering commitments to our clients.

01

Initial Meeting

"Your initial meeting is with no obligations."

We sit down with you—in person at our London office or over the telephone—to discuss your current provisions, assets, and future hopes. There is zero fee for this consultation, allowing you to experience our advisory approach with total peace of mind.

02

Sound Guidance

"To provide professional, independent financial advice."

Directly authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA Ref: 750602), we have unrestricted freedom to search the whole UK marketplace. Our guidance is clear, evidence-based, and uncompromised by product ties.

03

Long Term

"Offering advice throughout the stages of our long-term relationship."

A financial plan is not a one-off document; it is a living roadmap. We provide continuous support across your entire lifecycle, adapting to marriage, career growth, capital accumulation, inheritance, and retirement drawdowns.

Remuneration & Charging Policy

Transparent, mutually agreed fee models designed with integrity and regulatory compliance.

1. Initial Exploratory Review

100% Free of Charge. We listen, analyze your situation, and outline potential strategic avenues with no cost and zero obligation to proceed.

2. Fee-Based Advice

A transparent fixed fee or hourly rate agreed in writing prior to commencing research or financial planning. Common for pensions, tax structuring, and investment portfolios.

3. Commission-Based

Where permitted by the FCA (such as certain mortgage products and insurance protection plans), remuneration may be paid directly by the product provider upon successful completion.

4. Hybrid Combination

A customized arrangement blending fixed advisory fees with product commissions to suit complex, multi-layered financial requirements.
