Summary of report and client types


Report Types

Suitability report

Designed to ensure you fulfil all of the regulator's expectations of you when recommending a new product for a new or existing client and / or replacement business.

Review report 2.0

Designed to streamline the process of recommending a change of investment strategy for a client's existing plan(s).

Top-up / Bed & ISA report

Continued suitability report
