Find the right network for your advisory business
Independent guidance for mortgage and wealth advisers
Welcome to Network Consulting
The best network isn’t the same for every adviser or firm. Every network will tell you what makes them different. We help you decide which Network is right for you.
Whether you’re starting your own business, considering a change of network, moving between DA and AR, or planning your next move, the choices can be difficult to navigate.
Network Consulting provides completely independent guidance based on your business, your ambitions and your priorities — helping you cut through the noise, understand your options and make an informed decision that’s right for you.

Introduction to Network
Find the Right Proposition for You
Advisers Looking to Start Their Own Business
Starting your own advisory business is a major step, and choosing the right route and support can make a significant difference.
We help you understand the options available, identify the networks and propositions that match your requirements, and introduce you to those we believe are best suited to what you want to achieve.
Directly Authorised Firms Considering Becoming an AR
Moving from Direct Authorisation to Appointed Representative status is a significant decision and there is much more to consider than compliance and cost alone.
We help you compare the options, understand the differences between network propositions and identify those that best fit your business, clients and future plans.
Established AR Firms Looking to Change Network
If your current network no longer meets your needs, the challenge isn't simply finding another one — it's finding one that offers a genuinely better fit.
We help you establish what's important, compare suitable alternatives and understand the differences in areas such as costs, support, proposition, technology, compliance and contractual terms before making a move.
Advisers Seeking Opportunities Within Established Firms
Not every adviser wants or needs to establish their own firm.
Whether you're newly qualified, working towards CAS, moving from an employed role or simply looking for a different environment, we can introduce you to established firms where your experience, ambitions and requirements may be a good fit.
