About Us
There are financial advisers who exist by selling products to earn commission. If they don’t sell you anything, they don’t earn anything. Some providers pay advisers more commission than others. How can you be sure that the advice they offer is in your best interests and not theirs?
Shorts, on the other hand, charges fees for professional advice. If we receive any commission we will pass on the full value of that commission to you in one or more ways. This transparency provides our clients with the confidence and reassurance that the advice given is truly unbiased.
You may notice that financial advisers seem to appear and disappear on our High Streets with alarming regularity. In contrast, Shorts has origins in Chesterfield dating back to 1890 and has been providing advice (as opposed to selling products) ever since. With such an enviable heritage you can be confident that we can deliver the continuity required to see your plans to their conclusions.
Shorts are Chartered Financial Planners – one of only a small minority of firms in the country to achieve this status. This is the industry’s gold standard and confirms the most rigorous criteria relating to professional qualifications and ethical good practice has been satisfied.
In association with Shorts Chartered Accountants and we are able to draw upon an impressive range of specialist skills to provide a comprehensive and seamless advice solution, which is unrivalled in the area.
