AKORN Financial Advice help more clients by expanding their services to include Equity Release, with acceptance on to the Equity Release Council cementing their already high standards of advice.

Colin Taylor, director of mortgages, protection and equity release says: “We have been providing Equity Release and Later Life Lending advice for a number of years now and with its growth in popularity, vastly improved levels of regulation and industry standards, we now feel that it is the right time to really push forward with our plans to help as many clients as possible with this complex and specialist area of advice."

“Standards are everything. We obviously make sure all our advisers are well qualified with strong levels of technical knowledge and ability, but one of our core values here at AKORN is that in addition to that, we operate to very high standards and principles and that client service and care is central to everything we do. Being accepted as a member of the Equity Release Council is a great example of that” says Colin.

AKORN was founded on one simple premise, to try to help as many people as possible engage with the Financial Service they need, at a time they need it.

“We are really looking forward to continuing our mission to make Financial Services accessible, affordable, and as easy to understand as possible for every AKORN client”
