The value of advice - Coaching (Part 4)

By Sam Instone - March 15, 2018

Learning to say “no” is one of the most useful skills you can develop to enjoy a healthier and wealthier life.

Saying no to unnecessary commitments gives you more time;

Saying no to distractions helps you focus on what’s important; and

Saying no to temptations can improve wellbeing.

But, clamping down on emotions and getting past the pressures of everyday life is challenging.

In the next video in our Value of Advice series, we explain one of the most important roles a financial adviser fulfils, behavioural coaching.

Even the most self-disciplined investor finds it challenging to hold their nerve in a highly volatile market.

Saying “no” to that inner voice that wants to undo your best laid financial plans can be hard.

Say equities plummet.

What's the most common reaction? Sell.

No. Your adviser will teach you to stay focused, disciplined and hold your nerve.

With support and commitment, you’ll stay on track for a strong financial future.

If you are outside the UK and we advise you or carry out other business, nearly all the rules, regulations and arrangements made under the UK regulatory regime (including the rules made by the FCA and the dispute resolution process provided by the UK Financial Ombudsman Service) will not apply to most aspects of the service you receive, such advice or business being provided from outside the UK. You should therefore clearly understand such rights and protection as are afforded in the jurisdiction where you receive advice. Local law, regulation and redress processes will apply in almost all cases, and will be different from that of the UK.
