ClearGlass also participates in research on investments and cost transparency and reports on companies’ performance according to the standardised templates prescribed by the Financial Conduct Authority.
ClearGlass has helped more than 1200 investors & asset owners, with a combined value of over 700 billion pounds, to see their fees. We also work with pension funds in Europe and Southern Africa. We have the support of UK government bodies, and some of the biggest players in the pension industry.
