How to: finding a financial adviser you can trust

January 22, 2024  |  #Financial Planning

We’re proud to be the home of some of Australia’s Most Trusted Financial Advisers!

In the ever-evolving landscape of personal finance, finding a trustworthy and knowledgeable adviser is the key to unwavering support on your financial journey. At Invest Blue, we are committed to empowering our clients to live their best possible life. 

We aim to live up to the standard of working with ‘elated’ clients and their families as we quickly become Australia’s Trusted Home of Great Advice. The annual Beddoes Institute ‘Most Trusted Adviser’ feedback program is one way to ensure we continually improve and do our best to exceed the expectations of the individuals and families we work with. 

Thank you to everyone who participated in our 2023 Beddoes Survey. Overall, we had an overall response rate from our clients of 32%, which was an impressive 2483 surveys completed.  

Qualifying for a Most Trusted Adviser (MTA) title is no easy process; Beddoes completes a survey with each planner’s clients, then uses extensive mathematical metrics to identify the most trusted advisers. The data produced gives each planner an ‘adviser trust score’ which will qualify them for the MTA network. There is no ability to ‘buy in’, the qualification is considered to represent the voice of their clients.  

In addition to the client feedback, Beddoes also considers other variables such as years of experience, quality audits and level of qualification. You can view all requirements needed to reach the MTA distinction here. 

 

What we learnt from last year’s survey:

  • Invest Blue was awarded an impressive, overall high-performing trust score of 94/100 
  • 90% of our clients believe they had a strong relationship with their adviser 
  • 87% of clients believe we improved their financial situation for the better. 

 

Invest Blue are always looking for ways to positively enhance our client experience. The data provided by the Beddoes survey allows us to scope out overall customer satisfaction, understand where we are doing well and areas of opportunity and where we can be making improvements. Some initiatives we’ve employed over the past year include the release of our cornerstone quarterly newsletter to provide updates on the current market climate, performance and transparency on how clients funds are being managed. We’ve also prioritized investment into our people and client experience team to help improve our client communications. Other feedback we have taken on board is providing more service options for clients who may have low service needs but still require advice. Ultimately, this supports our journey to making financial advice more accessible.
