Smedvig Capital leads the Series A round to accelerate growth and expand operations at Profile Financial Solutions.
"Consumers are currently under serviced by the traditional IFA market, meaning that millions are unable to receive independent advice. We hope that by combining accessible technology with great customer service we can fix this problem. The investment from Smedvig will enable us to improve our digital capability and fund our expansion to meet the increasing demand for our services. With major changes to pensions just around the corner, we’re looking forward to welcoming many more clients to Profile and helping make their money go further for them."
