National IFA Chase de Vere has reported a 9.9% rise in pre-tax profits to £35.1m for 2025, up from £31.9m the previous year.
The firm published its annual report for 2025 yesterday.
It said revenue rose to £131.4m during the year, marking a 10.7% increase from 2024 (£118.6m).
The firm said the growth reflected continued demand for high-quality, independent financial advice and the strength of its long-term client relationships.
Chase de Vere achieved a net promoter score (NPS) of 71 for the 12-months to December 2025, above the industry average and slightly ahead of its target of 70. NPS is a market research metric that measures customer loyalty, satisfaction, and enthusiasm by gauging how likely they are to recommend a company's product or service to a friend or colleague.
It said client feedback strengthened further this year, with an NPS of 75.4 for the 12-months to 31 May 2026, the company’s best-ever score.
In 2025, Chase de Vere launched its Graduate Adviser Programme, a structured 18-month pathway for recent graduates to become IFAs.
Kathleen Gallagher, chief executive officer, Chase de Vere, said: “It is a privilege to continue to see our employees further expand their skills, knowledge and professional qualifications, as we aim to develop our next generation of IFAs.”
The company didn’t make any significant acquisitions in 2025 but Ms Gallagher praised the contributions from companies acquired in recent years.
With the support of parent company Swiss Life, Chase de Vere acquired Lloyd & Whyte (Financial Services) Limited, and DL Bloomer Limited and Nancherro Limited in 2024.
Ms Gallagher said: “We have a proven record of effectively integrating acquisitions and expect to see increased activity in the second half of 2026 and beyond, working with more firms and individuals.”
Chase de Vere was established in 1969 and is backed by Swiss Life.
