Independent Financial Advice

As the financial landscape evolves, people's financial needs become more complex and sophisticated.

Our main goal is to provide the ideal home for our highly experienced independent advisers, where they can be certain that they have access to the best support and resources our network has to offer, allowing them to focus on what matters most: serving the best interests of their customers.

Bespoke Technology

We believe that wealth planning requires a personal and tailored approach. For the same reason, we have created our own bespoke back office system to manage all aspects of the financial advice process which allow access by all parties at different levels of the Advice process.

Our small powerhouse team of IT professionals are always on hand to guide you through our comprehensive suite of bespoke technology solutions. Having created an intelligent back-office system with an adviser-centred approach, their focus is never off the ball as they continue to strive for further cutting-edge advances.

Executive Chair

“Welcome to Vision and may we take this opportunity to say thank you for spending the time to see how our company can benefit you in succeeding as a high-calibre independent financial adviser in today’s industry. Vision was formed out of strong foundations in our core values which we believe in and they continue to prove the basis for a dynamic and successful network. We would like to share these with you which should hopefully give you an understanding into our approach and set the scene for your journey with Vision.”

RR Wealth Management Ltd

“I always hoped to run my own business and for many years in an employed Financial Adviser role, I never knew how that would be possible. Vision made that transition seamless by providing support above and beyond anything I’ve experienced in the industry before.”

H2N Wealth Management Limited

“Working with and joining the Vision network was very straightforward and simple. I felt supported in my every move from an employee to a self-employed business owner. I have never felt so passionate and happier in my career. I love being my own boss, and the flexibility that comes with this. I’ve finally achieved the work / life balance I’ve always desired.”

Valere Wealth Management Limited

“I have found the move from a comfortable employed role to self-employed a lot smoother than I imagined. There was a lot of support from many other advisers within the network. I really feel like everyone is on your side and willing you to succeed. I have a great work/life balance, spending a lot more time with the family. I would recommend that any advisers thinking about joining to go for it and take that leap of faith.”

“Making the decision to leave HSBC was not easy – I was walking away from a salary, job security, friends and colleagues to name a few BUT, it was 100% the correct decision. Six years on, I love being my own boss and have built up a really good business. I now employ an assistant and continue to grow my client base. ”
