Welcome to your latest team update from Salisbury House Wealth. This month, we’d like to talk to you about something close to our hearts: making sure our team is representative of our clients – you – so we can best meet your needs.
Having a diverse team is good for us, and good for you
According to FTAdviser, 51% of multi-adviser firms have no women in adviser roles, in contrast to their client base, where women make up 60% of advised client relationships.
However, at Salisbury House Wealth, we believe not only in reflecting our client base, but also in building a strong, diverse team through our approach to recruitment, retention and progression.
Currently, we have four female Advisers, one female trainee Adviser, and one female Director, bucking the trend of over half of our contemporaries.
The way women seek and prefer financial advice is quite specific. Professional Adviser states that more than two thirds of women prefer to speak to a female Adviser.
There are various reasons for this. Men and women can have different financial priorities, for example. Sometimes, in a “traditional” partnership, the man can lead the way with financial discussions, and post-divorce or separation women can simply feel more comfortable discussing their new financial arrangements with another woman.
It’s also important to us that we break away from classic stereotypes, and we’re delighted that the landscape is shifting and more women are entering the profession.
We’ll always strive to offer our clients the very best representation and to meet your wide range of preferences and expectations from our Advisers.
And we’ll always offer the right opportunities, training, and support to make sure we’re bringing top talent into our team.
