Forum Wealth Management Limited was formed as a specialist Independent Financial Advisory Group. The company was formed by hand-picking a group of advisers whose specialities complement and enhance the services provided by other professional advisers; Solicitors, Accountants, Surveyors, etc. The Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 created a need for a company like Forum Wealth Management as a large number of professional advisers ceased to provide financial advice.
