Investors look set to be handed new exit fee freedoms by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) according to recent reports, with the regulator calling for a ban, or cap, on the charges some investors face when switching to a new investment platform.<\/p>\n
The call to restrict exit fees is long overdue in the view of many industry analysts, who believe it should be less expensive and time consuming for investors to shop around and move to a platform that best meets their needs and expectations, however, some feel the FCA\u2019s proposals don\u2019t move far enough.<\/p>\n
The Financial Planning Group Partner, Tim Norris, says that; \u201cHere at FPG we conduct ongoing due diligence on the platform\/WRAP market in the UK. We see no reason for a WRAP to ever charge an exit fee on client\u2019s money and welcome this new proposal. Our FPG WRAP, powered by Standard Life, has never charged our clients exit fees.\u201d<\/p>\n
