In addition, all advisers joining Lighthouse Financial Advice advisers have access to a Business Development Executive. These are experienced financial advisers who, in addition to practicing as financial planners, help advisers achieve their full potential. Depending on your business plan they will be able to help you:

  • make contact with local affinity group partners

  • run financial planning seminars, for example in local schools and hospitals
  • generally be on hand to advise you on developing business.
