2009 e-Excellence logo

F&TRC produces e-Excellence Research and Ratings which bring clarity to the market by identifying those solutions that best meet adviser requirements. 

The reports generated as a result of this activity enable providers to understand what they need to deliver to meet those requirements by providing a complete picture of their own proposition and their standing in the market.  This will help them to understand where their focus for further enhancements, both now and in the future, should be.

F&TRC facilitates Adviser Forum – a collaboration group bringing together many of the UK's major adviser and provider firms (current members represent approximately 65% of UK IFA distribution) on a regular basis to discuss key business issues and identify how to address them co-operatively.
