Father’s Day is a chance to celebrate the people who’ve shared advice, encouragement, questionable DIY skills, and an endless supply of dad jokes.

Sometimes it comes from someone teaching you how to ride a bike… or how not to reverse into a hedge.
Here’s to the father figures who help shape our lives.

The Bank of England has held interest rates at 3.75% for the fourth consecutive meeting, a decision widely anticipated by economists and financial markets.

While UK inflation remains above the Bank's target, it has proven more resilient than many feared despite ongoing global economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

The decision highlights the delicate balancing act facing policymakers: supporting economic growth while ensuring inflation continues its path towards target levels.
Governer of BoE Andrew Bailey says recent drops in oil prices are "encouraging" but high energy prices during the US-Israel war with Iran have still left “inflationary pressure in the pipeline”.

UK inflation remained at 2.8% in May, with slower food price increases helping to offset rising transport costs. Food inflation eased to its lowest level in 17 months, with price growth slowing across categories including meat, dairy and vegetables. Meanwhile, transport costs, including air fares and fuel, continued to put upward pressure on household budgets.

While inflation remains above the Bank of England's 2% target, the latest figures suggest that some of the cost pressures affecting everyday spending may be moderating. It is also a reminder that inflation is rarely driven by a single factor, with different sectors of the economy often moving in opposite directions at the same time.

Understanding what is driving inflation can help provide valuable context when assessing wider economic conditions, interest rate expectations and household finances.

What makes AI trust one financial advice firm over another?

Increasingly, AI systems look for signals including:

✓ Demonstrated expertise
✓ Authority in a specialist area
✓ Consistent content
✓ Strong local presence
✓ Reviews and reputation
✓ Structured website information
✓ Clear service positioning

The firms that build these signals today are likely to have a significant advantage tomorrow.

We've spent the last few months researching exactly how this applies to financial advisers.

Next week we'll be hosting a live Q&A on:

"Will AI recommend your financial advice firm?"

Details coming shortly.

Quick test for financial advice firms.

Ask ChatGPT: "Who are the leading financial advisers in [your town/city]?"

Then ask: "Who specialises in retirement planning or mortgages near me?"

Did your firm appear?

If not, you're not alone.

We're finding many highly reputable firms have little or no visibility in AI-powered search despite having strong offline reputations.

This is exactly why we've launched our new AI Visibility & Authority Audit for financial advice firms.

Tomorrow we'll explain what AI systems are actually looking for when deciding which firms to recommend.

Most financial advice firms have:

✅ A professional website
✅ Social media profiles
✅ Good client reviews
✅ Years of expertise

Yet many remain virtually invisible in Google AI overviews, AI-generated recommendations and conversational search results.

Why?

Because AI systems don't simply rank websites.

They assess authority, expertise, trust signals and digital credibility.

In other words:

Being a great adviser doesn't automatically make you discoverable online.
