Nearly 40 years since Big Bang, almost 2 decades since the Retail Distribution Review and 10 years since the Brexit vote, and we have a problem: the advice gap is only getting bigger. 


As Britons increasingly sit on valuable property wealth, grapple with inheritance tax and worry about funding their later lives, we all feel the need for professional advice has never been clearer. But what is the data telling us? 


In this episode of the FT Adviser podcast, Lorna Whalley, director – adviser platform, wealth from Aviva talks about the findings of their latest adviser research.



The FTAdviser Podcast is designed to inform regulated UK advisers on a range of topics, covering investments, pensions, regulation and other key issues.
