Many advisers can also do remote advice and never meet it person. email. client portals etc.
And if you dont have anxiety asking strangers on the internet then employing an adviser and using internet for communication should be fine.Should i be looking elsewhere ?
A question that strangers on an internet forum cannot answer. Its a specialist investment option. Typically one used for a very small niche. It also had different versions in the period it was available and differing terms. So, without proper analysis of the product and version you have vs alternatives based on your needs and situation, you are going to find it hard to get any decent info on it.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0
