Financial Planner magazine rates highly with PIMS delegates
Financial Planner magazine, the official monthly publication of the IFP, has been named by delegates on the PIMS intermediary conference as the second most read monthly industry magazine.
Of the seven trade monthly magazines surveyed by organisers Richmond Events, Financial Planner was voted the second most read with nearly 30 per cent of all delegates reporting that they had read Financial Planner in the previous four weeks.
Delegates also gave Financial Planner the second highest score for "most thoroughly read monthly", and delegates also named Financial Planner as the second most popular title if they had to choose only one monthly magazine to read.
It was the first time Financial Planner has been included in the survey.
Financial Planner Online, launched 2.5 years ago, also fared well, beating several other industry websites for 'most viewed over the last 7 days' and it was in line with many much longer established site when delegates were asked which site they would view if they could only view one website.

"It underlines the interest in Financial Planning and the widespread support for the magazine as a professional publication of value and usefulness to its readership."

There were 48 product providers and suppliers on board along with 175 delegates.
