Access Financial Services revealed a year of strong growth at its conference last week. The company pointed to a turnover increased of 128% by its 2023 financial year end.
In addition, the number of mortgage and protection advisers increased two and a half time from 95 advisers in 2022 to 200 by the end of its financial year and has now hit 240.
The number of head office staff has also more than doubled from 17 to 36.
Access FS advisers increased the number of mortgages they sold by 26% year-on-year and have increased protection sales by 155%.
Access FS also acquired a digital marketing agency this year which boosted lead generation for its advisers, while the ongoing development of its academy is nurturing a pipeline of skilled professionals with comprehensive training courses including CeMAP 1, 2 and 3.
Access FS also has ambitious targets for the next two years, with a projected 45% growth for this financial year ending mid-2024, predicting 80% growth the year after.
Access chief executive Karl Wilkinson comments: “Our performance this year has been a validation of the growth strategy we put in place in previous years. We are redefining what growth looks like in the market. We’ve seen our adviser community grow significantly, and our financial growth has been extraordinary.
He adds: “We’re not just participants in the market – we want to be innovators, leading the charge and setting new benchmarks. The figures speak for themselves. We’re not content with the status quo, we’re constantly striving for more.”
