Bestinvest launches Platform for IFAs

Bestinvest has launched a new platform for the UK IFA market, aimed at allowing advisers to offer their clients the asset manager's whole proposition. Multi-asset Portfolio Investment Management is designed for partners IFAs to access Bestinvest's full discretionary fund management service.



The first adviser firm to join the platform has also been announced as Guildford based Bentley-Leek Financial.

Richard Brown, head of business development at Bestinvest, said: "We believe the proposition we are launching will prove very attractive to IFAs.

"The aim is to support IFAs with their investment requirements across their client base, thus freeing up their time to focus on the core demands of their business, namely financial planning.

"It is in all our interests, especially in these turbulent times, that more productive and therefore profitable time is spent with clients and our B2B proposition is specifically designed to do exactly that."

Bentley-Leek Financial chairman Mark Bentley-Leek added: "At our core we are a financial planning business and so are very happy to be able to effectively outsource much of our investment offering and so devote more of our time and resources to focus on the strengths of our business."
