Introducer partnerships
Introduce clients, add value to your relationship — and create a potential income stream.
Patrick Wayne Wealth works with professional introducers who want their clients to receive regulated financial advice while also having the opportunity to earn agreed remuneration from qualifying introductions.
The exact payment basis, eligibility and duration are agreed in the introducer arrangement before referrals are made.
Introducer remuneration
A successful introduction can create more than a one-off benefit.
Where an introduction results in qualifying business, an agreed introducer payment may be payable. Depending on the agreed arrangement and the business written, remuneration may also continue where the client remains in an eligible ongoing service.
Payment for qualifying introductions
Where a referred client proceeds with eligible business, the introducer may receive remuneration in accordance with the agreed introducer terms.
Potential ongoing remuneration
Where the agreed introducer arrangement provides for it, eligible ongoing client relationships can continue to generate introducer remuneration rather than ending after the initial advice.
Clear terms before referrals begin
The payment basis, amount, eligibility, duration and any relevant disclosure requirements are set out in the formal introducer agreement.
Introducer remuneration is not guaranteed for every referral and does not influence the advice given to the client. Any payment must remain consistent with the agreed introducer arrangement and applicable regulatory and disclosure requirements.
Who we work with
Built for professional-to-professional referrals.
Referrals are most useful where the client already has a trusted professional adviser and needs specialist regulated financial advice to sit alongside existing tax, legal, property or business work.
Accountants
Where pensions, investments, protection, retirement planning or wider financial planning sit alongside tax or business advice.
Solicitors
Where financial advice is needed around estate planning, later life, divorce, settlement proceeds or other legal matters.
Mortgage professionals
Where clients need broader pensions, investments, protection or planning support outside the mortgage transaction.
Other trusted advisers
Where a regulated financial-planning question sits outside your own area of expertise or permissions.
How referrals work
A simple handover without losing sight of the wider client relationship.
Introduce the client
Provide enough context for us to understand what the client may need help with.
We speak to the client
We establish the financial objective, scope and whether regulated advice is appropriate.
We deliver the advice
Where appropriate, we carry out the relevant research, recommendation and implementation work.
We keep communication proportionate
With the client’s permission, we coordinate with the referring professional where doing so helps the wider work.
Our referral principles
Clear boundaries make professional relationships work better.
Client first
The recommendation must be suitable for the client’s circumstances and objectives, regardless of how the introduction was made.
No unnecessary overlap
We do not attempt to replace professional work already being handled appropriately by the referrer.
Consent-led communication
Client information is not shared back to a referrer without an appropriate basis and, where required, the client’s consent.
Areas we can support
Refer the financial-planning problem, not a pre-selected product.
A referral does not predetermine the recommendation.
The client may arrive with an idea of what they want to do, but the advice process still needs to establish the objective, relevant circumstances, risks and alternatives before any personal recommendation is made.
Frequently asked questions
Referral questions, answered.
Do I need to know exactly what advice the client needs?
No. A short explanation of the issue is enough to begin. The financial-advice process should determine the appropriate scope.
Will I be kept updated?
Where appropriate, and with the client’s permission, we can coordinate with the referring professional on matters relevant to the wider work.
Can you work alongside the client’s accountant or solicitor?
Yes. Financial planning often works best when regulated advice, legal work and tax advice are coordinated while each professional remains responsible for their own area.
Can introducers be paid?
Yes, where an agreed introducer arrangement provides for remuneration and the referral results in qualifying business. The exact payment basis, eligibility and duration are agreed in advance and handled in line with applicable disclosure and regulatory requirements.
Can introducer remuneration continue after the initial advice?
Potentially. Where the agreed introducer arrangement includes ongoing remuneration and the client remains within an eligible ongoing service, the introducer may continue to receive remuneration for as long as the relevant terms continue to be met.
