Onboarding of children

Hi, what is your procedure when a child of a client, turns 18 with for example, a Junior ISA, which is to remain invested.

I think this is the trigger to take them on as a full client in their own right, which means completing their own factfind, assessing risk, issuing onboarding documents etc. Due to the likely low value of the assets, a simplified/automated proposition may be applied but are there any other areas where you simplify? A shortened factfind for example?

I do think it’s important to engage/build a relationship with the children of clients, so I wouldn’t want to simplify too much but I’m interested to hear how others handle this.

Thanks

    I think this is where buying in a white labelled robo proposition could work quite nicely......

    Yes, the investment proposition would almost certainly be along those lines, which makes perfect sense for the likely level of assets.

    I'm considering a simplified factfinding process, but part of me gets nervous about doing that. I wouldn't want to simplify it too much. This could be the 'child's' only assets.
