Podcast: Gillian Hepburn on the advice landscape in 2022

Loading player...
In this episode of The Advice Show, reporter Nicola Blackburn speaks with Gillian Hepburn, head of UK intermediary solutions at Schroders.

In December, Gillian published the 2021 edition of the Schroders UK Financial Adviser Survey, which gained responses from 203 advisers across the UK. The survey captured how advice businesses were facing up to trends affecting the profession in 2021, such as increased M&A activity, and rising client interest in sustainable investing and cryptocurrencies.

Gillian and Nicola discuss some of the key findings in this episode, and Gillian uses her 'crystal ball' to predict what advisers should look out for in 2022.
