IFAs and brokers see surge in company values, research shows
New data has revealed significant increases in the company values of independent financial advisers and mortgage brokers in the UK.
The latest figures show the average change in company values for IFAs in the UK is 10.9% for the current year.
This represents an increase of 9.6% compared to the average change in company values of 1.3% recorded last year and is the highest recorded over the last six years.
The figures also show the average change in company values for mortgage brokers in the UK is 12.7% for the current year, up from 6.8% in the previous year.
However the percentage change for the current year is still some way off the 32.7% average change in values recorded for mortgage brokers six years ago.
The figures are taken from independent market analysis of 1,600 industries by Plimsoll Publishing - a provider of company and market specific financial analysis – which uses the latest data from Companies House.
