Former Fitzpatricks Private Wealth general manager Philip Reid has set up a new Association of Real Return Investment Advisers (ARRIA) for advisers to share strategies and meet fund managers.
ARRIA was formed as a forum to allow advisers to discuss strategies for investment.

The association was set up at the beginning of February and now has four financial advisers and four fund managers.
In addition, Standard Life Investments has also joined the organisation to educate advisers about real return investing in a post-GFC environment.
Furthermore, ARRIA will allow advisors to access the information they need from fund managers to use real return strategies on behalf of their clients.
However, ARRIA will conduct quarterly roundtable meetings, with the next one to be held in May.

By GlobalDataReid said: "The aim of the association is to give advisers a forum where they can discuss real return investing and gain a greater understanding of how such strategies can be integrated into clients’ portfolios.
Standard Life Investments’ investment director, whole business, Matthew Newham said: "The global financial crisis has forced investors to focus on managing risk, and as a result they are moving away from the traditional balanced portfolio of equities and bonds and moving towards real return investing."
The other financial adviser members of ARRIA include WLM Financial Services principal Matthew Walker, Northstar Financial Advisers principal Alistair Saunders, More4Life Financial Services principal James Walker-Powell and FM Financial Solutions principal Fergus Hardingham.
