To become a client on-line

The level of information we need will depend on the level of service you select. Here is a checklist to enable you to access the correct forms.

Terms of Business

The regulatory basis on which we work is described in our Terms of Business. It is in your interests to read this document prior to setting up any relationship with us. This is an integral part of our Letters of Engagement due to its importance but if you would like to see the text then please click here.

In addition to our Terms of Business, there are five main forms:

1. Questionnaire
2. Money Laundering
3. Letter of Engagement
4. Combined Initial Disclosure Document (CIDD)
5. Investment Management Fee Charging Appendix

Each is explained in more detail below but the following table gives you access to the page where you will find the relevant form. Each is also available as a "pdf" file, which can be accessed/printed via the icon on each page.

Further Details:

1: Questionnaire

Our business is giving you sound and practical financial planning advice, as well as the facility to implement the financial solutions. Before we are able to help, we need detailed information on your financial affairs. More importantly, without it, it is difficult for us to give the level and depth of consideration to your affairs that we strive to achieve.

The questionnaire helps you to collate the information. Alternatively, you may already completed the task or use spreadsheets to summarise your financial affairs; copies of these would be equally useful.

2: Money Laundering Regulations

It is important that we all comply with the Money Laundering Regulations. These rules were designed to prevent the transfer of illegal funds from one investment type to another, or at least slow their progress.

3: Letter of Engagement

This simply formalises our relationship so that everyone is clear who is doing what. It is important to clearly express the scope of any service and agree on timings and delivery.

4: Combined Initial Disclosure Document (CIDD)

This document deals with clarity's services in relation to packaged products, non-investment insurance contracts and regulated mortgage contracts (including regulated lifetime mortgage contracts and home reversion schemes).

5: Investment Management Fee Charging Appendix

Within our Investment Management Service there are 2 different processes by which we will receive your fee. This document gives full details of each charging method.
