One of the most exciting developments for the firm in 2017 was our acceptance as provisional members of the Global Association of Independent Advisers (GAIA) an association of evidence-based financial planning firms from around the world who have come together to share best practices and to develop further the financial planning profession.

Membership is by invitation only and we were required to undergo a stringent due diligence process before our membership was confirmed. Bloomsbury is one of only three member firms in the UK.
