ABOUT POSITIVE ADVISERS

Independent advice, built around you

Positive Advisers was founded in 2016 by Mark Scott and Marta Scott-Manuszewska with a simple belief: financial advice should leave you clearer, calmer and in control. We're an independent firm, an Appointed Representative of New Leaf Distribution Ltd, with our head office in Corby, an Essex team in Witham, and advisers across the UK. We combine the warmth of local service with the strength of a national network, in person or online.
