About us

Our vision is of better informed and more confident consumers who are able to take greater responsibility for their financial affairs and choose products and services that meet their needs.”

We are the UK’s Consumer Financial Education Body (CFEB), responsible for helping consumers understand financial matters and manage their finances better.

CFEB is an independent body, established by the Financial Services Authority as required by the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended by the Financial Services Act 2010).

We do this by providing impartial information, education and advice through a national financial advice service. And we work with trusted partners * to get our help to people at the right time.

All our information, tools and resources are sales free. We are impartial and will not recommend specific products or firms, but we can give you the information you need to help you shop around and find what is right for you.

* If your work involves helping others to manage their finances, our wide range of free information, tools and resources will help you in your work to help others get a head start and take control. Click here for more information.
