A recent study carried out by Zurich Insurance has shown that over half the consumers in the UK have never taken financial advice from a qualified advisor.
It may be an age related matter since the 18 to 24 year olds have the highest percentage of people without advice, 84 percent. Even for those aged 35 and over though there are still half of them who have never received financial advice. Zurich Insurance are urging everyone to consider speaking to finance professional in order to best arrange their finances.
At times of difficulty such as those being faced in the UK currently it is more important than ever to receive sound financial advice since there is a greater likelihood of problems when the economy is slow. Whether it is a Zurich Insurance financial advisor or one from another company the important element is to take advice from an expert.
