Wren Sterling has been accredited as an FSQS supplier for banks and major financial institutions, as it has every year since 2019.
Paul Chafer, Wren Sterling’s Chief Commercial Officer said:
“This accreditation is a major enabler for us to compete for, and win, large scale corporate contracts evidencing the quality of our organisation. The assessment is rigorous and covers all the major areas of our business, so it’s a credit to everyone involved that we’ve been certified for the sixth year in a row.
“Every year, our advice helps thousands of people make life-changing decisions. I’m proud of the work we do supporting large and mid-size companies in providing financial advice to their staff and pension scheme members, and we have a very strong external reputation for delivering excellence, as a result of our track record.”
