Hey JJF


Im on there and am not winning at the mo.. Got it for equity sales but still looking around for the others... thanks!

execution only services are for people who want to manage their own investments. ie say i'm massively wealthy and have a good understanding of the financial markets. so my advisor (at a private bank - ie barclays wealth) will be the one i call to say buy this or sell that, or i want to do this etc. they arent providing me with advice as i know what i'm doing. they are literally there to execute the services that i require.


as far as i'm aware advisory services are for those who arent as financially savvy - so would require a bit more explanation etc. so the advisor is the one who is giving advice to the client and then the client can choose what they want to do.

    • If the Qatari's decide to retaliate then it's all going off...but I suspect the Iranians are hoping for this - one inaccurate missile and the Qatari's may have to. I think the Iranian leadership is working on fast-tracking their own demise and the Americans and Israeli's planning for regime change, maybe with the many political prisoners the Israelis tried to free from the Elvin prison today. What a mess but clearly Iran was becoming a big threat to not only Israel but many of the other Gulf States and was clearly doing scary stuff with nuclear weapons that required action.
    • I can't find any references to an attack on a British base. where do you find one?
    • Flea darts...now there's a thing from my past I had long forgotten about - goodness our ! This thread title does always bring a smile to my face as I can't help but think it suggests a campaign to prevent the removal of someone's stash!
    • It was inevitable, but I think it'll blow over. Iran co-ordinated the attack with the Qataris, so as not to offend their mates, so Qatar was prepared. I hope it's just symbolic bluster and I think they're only targeting US bases.  Even if they target a UK base, I doubt it'll drag us into a conventional war with them.
