We’re supporting the Paraplanners Powwow

We know that Paraplanners are crucial to the financial planning process.

So we’re supporting the Paraplanners Powwow - informal gatherings designed by Paraplanners for Paraplanners to exchange views, learn, fix and share things.

And as you might guess from the name, there’s a distinctly Wild West flavour to what they do!

Introducing the Magnificent Five

We’re working with the Paraplanners Powwow to create this series because we believe you’re the backbone of financial planning. You’ve got an amazing level of technical knowledge and we want to support you in the ever changing financial landscape.

And better still – all the sessions are CPD accredited!
