Winning your clients trust and safeguarding their data

We each represent 1 in 3 billion+ internet users, a population that represents around 40% of the world’s entire population.

Online fraud continues to increase on ‘the same curve’ with no small part of this attributable to the interception of email and its sometimes sensitive content.

Email volumes continue to grow exponentially with over 182 billion currently sent every day.

Professional Services. 

The UK government is getting serious about cyber-crime - Keeping the UK safe in cyberspace policy and looking to the professional services sector to lead on the subject.

“Trusted professionals …… are on the front line of cyber-attacks – they are privy to sensitive information (e.g. client lists, personal information, sensitive commercial information about upcoming deals) which might be attractive to criminals/others. They are also well-placed to encourage their clients to take appropriate actions to protect themselves.”

Failure to address this subject can carry significant consequences - the regulators, Law Society / FCA / ICO, take a dim view on those who choose to gamble with their clients most precious of assets, ‘their data / identity’.

It’s estimated that more than 1 in 12 of us might be the subject of fraud whilst winning the lottery carries a probability of 1 in 14 million – or putting it another way

. . . . you are probably a million times more likely to be defrauded than you are to win the lottery !

Client Centred Advisers: Helping clients stop living in life’s waiting room

One of the most common assumptions people make is this: “I’ll be happy when…” I’ll be happy when I can retire. I’ll be happy when the mortgage is paid off. I’ll be happy when I have enough money. I’ll be happy when I can work less. I’ll be happy when I’ve achieved financial freedom. At first glance, these seem like perfectly reasonable goals. In fact, many of them are exactly the kinds of goals financial planners help clients work towards every day.
