Bankhall
The Bankhall Company was conceived by Paul Hogarth and Simon Taylor in 1993 under the company banner of Bankhall Investment Associates. Its original conception was to provide IFA support services to directly authorised firms.
Since then numerous changes have occurred with the creation of Bankhall Mortgages (formerly Point One), the purchase of two mortgage clubs and strategic alliances with third parties.
Bankhall specializes in the provision of support services and offers the solution to a range of business needs faced by financial advisers. It provides all the benefits associated with a traditional network, including full technical and software support, as well as sales and marketing support, but without the strings attached. Bankhall is designed for IFAs who are directly authorised by the FSA or who are wishing to apply for direct authorisation.
Bankhall offers a range of product propositions that includes pensions, investments, general insurance, health insurance and life insurance. Their mortgage range includes specific product developments such as the pure protection preferred panel. This, for example, allows Bankhall members to offer significant discounts on the premiums for those products to their customers.
