About us
Philip Hanley set up Philip James Financial Services in 2000 (James is Philip’s middle name), and we have been directly authorised with our regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, since 2011.
This means we’re completely independent and not part of a network or tied to any other big company. Which is why we changed our name to Philip James Independent Financial Advice so you can be sure we do what we say on the tin.
We offer straightforward, personal investment, pensions and protection advice. We have over 500 clients for whom we look after some £150m.
