Scot Prov signs up Dragons Den star to front IFA roadshow

Scottish Provident has signed up Duncan Bannatyne to front an IFA advice roadshow.

The Dragons' Den star will visit four UK cities in November and December as part of ‘The Next Level' tour, presenting a series of interactive sessions on how advisers can generate new growth.

Participants will also have the chance to win £5,000 cash, dinner with Bannatyne, and an iPad 2.

Roger Edwards (pictured), proposition director for Scottish Provident, said they were "thrilled" to have Bannatyne on board.

"On the eve of our 175th year, Duncan's tour promises to be informative, entertaining, and hugely rewarding, and each evening promises to be invaluable to IFAs wanting to take their own businesses to ‘The Next Level'", he said.

Bannatyne, who will tell his journey from an ice-cream van owner to head of the Bannatyne Group, offered some early advice: "Stay focused, work hard and grab the opportunities when they come along".

The tour will visit London on 28 November, Birmingham on 29 November, Manchester on 1 December and Edinburgh on 6 December.
