for IFA Promotion's free factsheet,
'A students' guide to coping with university finances'
Recent reports suggest the Government may be considering re-introducing maintenance grants. However for students starting university this term, concerns about their studies may play on their mind far less than how they will cope with their finances. With the cost of sending a child to university increasing each year, and the decline in the stockmarket, most parents will have less money to give out as pocket money and students may find the responsibility lies with them to fund their living costs, and some of their entertainment.
IFA Promotion has produced a free factsheet outlining the best way to manage finance for those on a tight budget, without missing out. The factsheet offers relevant information targeted for those who want to make the best financial decisions for their student days. It guides the reader through the maze of information and products available.
David Elms CEO of IFA Promotion commented: "No one wants to miss out on the wealth of opportunities student life provides because they don't have enough money. With a bit of careful planning and shopping round for the best deal, students could find they have more money to spend on essentials such as books, stationery and a good healthy social life!"
For a free copy of the guide call the IFA Promotion consumer hotline on 0800 085 3250 or visit www.unbiased.co.uk. Callers will also receive details of three local IFAs plus a free consultation voucher..

Independent Financial Adviser Promotion
Independent Financial Adviser Promotion Ltd. was established in 1989 to promote the value and accessibility of independent financial advice to the public. It represents nearly 10,000 firms of independent financial advisers across the UK and is sponsored by 32 leading financial institutions.
IFA Promotion's central belief is:
"Consumers have a right to financial advice that is independent of the providers of financial products - i.e. independent financial advice."
Furthermore independent financial advice should be:
- Affordable. The option to take independent financial advice should be available, by right, to all - not just the wealthiest in society
- Convenient. IFAs should be available in the location of the consumer's choice, wherever they live in the UK.
- Transparent. It must be clearly transparent to consumers who is able to offer independent financial advice and who is not.
