Paradigm signs up Unleash Advice

Unleash Advice was established in February this year by Andy Adewale, former Co-founder and executive chairman of Mint Financial Services Ltd, and is a new IFA/independent mortgage adviser network proposition. Chesterfield-based, Unleash currently has 13 appointed representative (AR) firms attached with 30 registered individuals (RIs) conducting mortgage and investment business. The 30 RIs are a mixture of both mortgage intermediaries and independent financial advisers.

With four months trading Unleash has major expansion plans and ambitions to grow the number of advisers to 200 within four years. Adewale spearheaded Mint from a standing start to 265 advisers, a turnover of £15 million and profits in excess of £400k per annum.

In becoming Partner members of Paradigm, Unleash Advice will now receive an equal share of the incremental revenue it creates, once a year. It is also able to build up equity through Paradigm’s limited liability partnership which is held in a discretionary trust.

Paradigm Mortgage Services is a mortgage partnership proposition open to intermediary firms offering access to lenders covering the whole of the market, coupled with a range of mortgage-related support services. These services include lending and provider panels for equity release, secured lending, bridging finance, conveyancing, protection and general insurance plus compliance support services.
