Frequently asked questions

  • What can I expect from a meeting with a Specialist Financial Adviser?

    When you request a detailed conversation about your finances, a Specialist Financial Adviser from Wesleyan Financial Services will usually meet you via video call. Alternatively, they can speak with you in person in the comfort of your own home.

    During the meeting, your Specialist Financial Adviser will look at your financial situation as a whole, and discuss your specific goals, priorities or concerns.

  • Is the advice free?

    The meeting itself is on a no obligation basis. If you do choose to take out a Wesleyan financial product as a result, there’ll be an initial advice fee and often ongoing management charges to pay. While our Specialist Financial Advisers will often make recommendations, there’s no obligation to take out any Wesleyan products or services.

  • What should I prepare ahead of the meeting?

    To make the most of your time with your Specialist Financial Adviser, it can be handy to have your questions ready, as well as any information or documents relating to your finances (such as savings or investment details).

    You may also be asked to complete a ‘Financial Outline’ ahead of the session. This enables you to tell your Adviser about your current circumstances and future goals, so they can prepare an appointment tailored to you.

    If you choose not to complete the Financial Outline in advance, you’ll need to do it as part of your appointment.

  • How long does the meeting last?

    An initial meeting with a Specialist Financial Adviser will typically last around one hour. However, this does depend on the complexity of your circumstances.

  • How soon will I be able to get a meeting?

    You won’t have to wait long at all. Contact us today and we should be able to get you an appointment with a Specialist Financial Adviser within the next ten days.
