 The Association of Independent Financial Advisers (AIFA) today announced that M&G Investments and RBS Global Banking & Markets have become Associate Members of the organisation.

 Stephen Gay, Director General of AIFA, said:
 "We are delighted that M&G and RBS have joined AIFA. This is a very positive move and we look forward to forging strong relationships in the coming months. By joining AIFA they are demonstrating their ongoing commitment to the IFA profession. At such an important time for IFAs, we are delighted they are pledging their support to our members.
 
 "Through additional work undertaken with RBS we will bring a series of regional events to our members. This will allow us to visit them in locations up and down the country.  The events themselves will explore the issue of volatility within cautious and balanced funds through a member factsheet.

 "M&G will also give us opportunities to reach members via their popular iView channel. iView offers advisers TV-quality news programmes from specialists such as fund managers and leading industry experts, as well as thought-leading documentaries and fund-specific videos. We look forward to working closely with both organisations in the future."
 
 Zak de Mariveles, Managing Director of RBS Global Banking & Markets, said:
 "RBS are delighted to be working so closely with AIFA and its members, with a commitment to supporting the IFA community as we strive to offer greater investment choice to IFA's and their clients"
