Why get investment advice?
Investing can seem complicated, especially if you don't have much experience. Maybe you’ve recently inherited some money, sold a property or you're looking for new ways to grow your nest egg. That’s where Aegon Financial Planning can help.
Advice you can trust
If you’re able to invest either a lump sum of at least £20,000 or at least £400 a month, then Aegon Financial Planning could be right for you.
Aegon Financial Planning employs over 200 Financial Planning Managers across the UK. They're experts in helping investors make the most from their money and it's easy to get started.
Step 1 - Book an appointment
During the initial meeting, you'll talk through your current situation with a Financial Planning Manager. They'll answer any questions you may have and check that advice is the right option for you.
Step 2 - Your recommendations
Once the Financial Planning Manager has identified your needs, they'll book a second appointment to go through their investment recommendations and make sure they suit your goals.
Step 3 - Application support
Application forms can be confusing and time consuming. If you’re happy to proceed, Aegon Financial Planning will complete the forms with you, leaving you to simply sign the documents using an electronic system called DocuSign.
Investing is a long-term strategy and you should be comfortable with investing for at least five years. If you decide to invest, remember that the value of your investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you originally invested.
Your Ongoing Advice Service
Aegon Financial Planning will monitor your investments, keep your plans on track and keep you educated and informed. The Ongoing Advice Service includes:
- advice on a range of carefully selected investments which you can access online.
- a yearly service review to make sure your portfolio is right for your personal needs and circumstances.

- updates on notable changes from Aegon Financial Planning's investment committee.
