To ensure that our clients receive the highest level of advice and service, we have a team of Fire and General Insurance Specialists, Blanket Advice Limited that we refer all our clients to. 

If you take out a policy with Blanket on the back of my referral, our advisers may receive a small referral commission depending on which insurance products you take out cover with, after taxes 

Other Conflicts of Interest

Some advisers have a financial interest in the business of Enva Mortgages Limited as a shareholder through a holding company. Any payment of dividends or other distributions to shareholders by Enva Mortgages Limited has no effect on the service provided.

How we manage conflicts of interest and put your interest first

All of the services Enva Mortgages offers are provided free of charge to our clients. This is because we are paid by the lending providers when one of their products is taken up on the back of our recommendation.

Although we are paid by the providers, we always put your interests first:

  • We let you know any limitations of the service we offer
  • We explain how and why the recommended lender meets your individual needs over other providers we work with
  • We identify and disclose the maximum level of commission we may get on the back of our recommendation
  • If our recommendation involves replacing any existing lending, we will explain the advantages, such as overall cost savings
  • We provide a written summary that explains the process we undertook to arrive at your final lending solution
  • Enva Mortgages completes internal and external reviews of our advice process to ensure we follow a thorough review process that puts client interest first
