Here at Retiring IFA, we help wealth management and financial planning business owners sell their business and client bank or alternatively, to purchase additional funds under management by finding a financial planning practice they can buy.

Selling or buying an IFA business or client bank can be a difficult process more so if you have inherited an IFA practice, since the advent of the Financial Services Act back in 1986.

The financial services industry has become more regulated with the RDR, MIFID, and various other events speeding up the rate of consolidation across the retail financial services profession.

The demand for financial advice businesses for sale and those looking to buy financial investment firms has remained buoyant and Retiring IFA are the right people to help you though! We have hundreds of wealth management, retail financial services and financial planning businesses for sale by the owners who have registered with us to sell an IFA business.

Retiring IFA usually complete between 70-90 IFA business sales each year, and take a pride in putting IFA buyers and IFA sellers together, to create wealth management firms that are fit for purpose and that are successful in providing financial advice to clients for many decades after the merger or business sale has completed.

In terms of buying an IFA business, we have hundreds of buyers registered with us who are keen to buy wealth management firms and expand their financial planning and Independent Financial Advice (IFA) proposition within retail financial services.

The increasing FCA regulation on IFAs has gone hand in hand with increases in IFA PI cover, (professional indemnity cover for financial services firms), and this has increased the number of IFA and investment businesses for sale coming onto the market.
