Investment firm shows its support for IFAs

Franklin Templeton Investments has become a member of IFA Promotion, the organisation which promotes independent financial advice through its consumer-facing ‘find an IFA’ search which is hosted on unbiased.co.uk 
 
Franklin is one of the world’s largest asset management groups.
 
Unbiased.co.uk is now in its 21st year and has handled half a million requests for details of local IFAs over the last year. 

The ‘find an IFA’ search has white label versions on over 60 partner websites and media portals, promoting the benefits of independent financial advice to the consumer.  
 
Ian Wilkins, sales and marketing director at Franklin, said: “We believe that independent and professional financial advice offers consumers a valuable framework within which to take long-term decisions about their financial future.

“As a group, we want to demonstrate our commitment to the UK advisory community by supporting IFAP to increase the awareness and benefits of IFAs amongst investors – 
something we feel is especially important right now, given the market volatility of the past two years.”
