30/01/2009 - SimplyBiz offers free investment fund research tool to all member firms
SimplyBiz have this week announced that they will be offering a fund research tool to each of their member firms at no cost. The Huddersfield based compliance and business services provider for directly authorised advisers have teamed up with financial consultancy firm Rayner Spencer Mills to create ‘Simply Funds’, a fund research tool designed exclusively for SimplyBiz members.
Gary Kershaw, Compliance Director of SimplyBiz, commented:
“In these uncertain times the importance of picking the right investment funds is key to the whole advice process. With thousand of funds out there, the selection process itself can be a full time task and is outside the specialist field of many advisers. Our partnership with Rayner Spencer Mills will give all our IFA firms that skill set, from a reliable and comprehensive source. By offering it as a complimentary benefit to all SimplyBiz member firms, we feel that we will not only provide real value but will also help firms deliver positive TCF through the consistent approach that this tool will offer.”
Ian Thorneycroft, Managing Director of SimplyBiz, added:
“We looked for research that was easy to use, continually updated and used quantatative and qualitative methods and decided that Rayner Spencer Mills was a perfect match to co-design Simply Funds. This kind of help with research is probably the one thing that members asked me about most last year, we have taken a while to review all that's available and get what we believe to be the best research tool available. We are delighted to be able to offer it free to our member firms, and are sure that they will benefit greatly as a result.”
Geoff Mills, Director of Rayner Spencer Mills, commented:
'We are delighted to be working with SimplyBiz to deliver an enhanced investment proposition for their members. This service is a perfect response to the current regulatory and economic pressures and further demonstrates their total commitment to their member firms and the UK Advisory sector.”
