Frequently asked questions
I work as an independent (fee-only) financial adviser: is 66.19.22 the right code?
Yes. Code 66.19.22 covers independent financial advisers — those who charge a fee for advice without placing products on behalf of banks or distribution networks. If instead you operate under a mandate from an intermediary for off-premises distribution, the correct code is 66.19.21.
Financial advisory 66.19.22 or management consulting 70.20.09: where does one end and the other begin?
It depends on the subject matter. Code 66.19.22 covers investments, financial products, and financial planning for individuals or businesses. If instead you advise on organisational structure, strategy, or management control, you fall under 70.20.09.
If I carry out valuations and appraisals of securities and financial products, do I stay under 66.19.22 or does the code change?
It changes. Advisory proper falls under 66.19.22, but expert valuation and appraisal activities on securities and financial products — carried out as a court-appointed or stock-exchange expert — are classified under 69.10.30.
Independent financial advisory or supervision of funds: do 66.19.22 and 66.29.01 overlap?
No, the boundary is clear. Code 66.19.22 is advisory provided to a private or corporate client. Code 66.29.01 is the activity of a regulatory authority that supervises insurance undertakings and pension funds — not a service sold on the market.
