22 February 2017

Front Events, organisers of the Financial Services Expo (FSE) exhibitions for the financial services industry in the UK, have today (22nd February 2017) announced two new events which will take place at the Celtic Manor Resort in June this year.

FSE Wales, formerly FSE Cardiff, will be held at Celtic Manor, near Newport, South Wales on Wednesday 28th June, with the brand new FS Open Golf Tournament held the next day on its world-famous Twenty Ten course.

FSE Wales will provide adviser visitors with access to a range of key exhibitors including lenders, distributors, networks, insurance providers, technology companies, and many more.

There will also be a full range of seminar presentations, put together by the Association of Mortgage Intermediaries (AMI) and Financial Reporter and covering a wide range of topics, delivered by industry experts. The seminar sessions are CII-accredited and delegates can earn CPD hours. Registration for FSE Wales will be opened closer to their dates.

The FS Open is a new golfing tournament for the financial services industry, pitting 20 teams of four players against each other on Celtic Manor’s Twenty Ten Course, where the 2010 Ryder Cup match was held.

A team of four gets to play on this challenging course plus receives breakfast, drinks at the Halfway House, lunch and a post-round dinner, plus a commemorative photograph.

Full details of the tournament, how to enter and sponsorship opportunities can be found at: www.fs-open.co.uk

Details of these two events come just a month before the start of FSE Glasgow, the first FSE event for Front Events in 2017. FSE Glasgow will take place for the third year on Tuesday 21st March at the Hilton Glasgow Hotel, 1 William Street, Glasgow. The event will have a full seminar programme comprised of a key-note address, specific presentations on sectors and products, plus panel events with industry commentators.

Exhibitors attending FSE Glasgow include lenders such as Lloyds Banking Group, RBS, One Savings Bank, Accord Mortgages, Coventry for Intermediaries, alongside other providers, insurance, distributors, networks, and many more.

Advisers and brokers can register for the one-day event by visiting the FSE Glasgow website at:

Further to this, FSE Manchester will take place on Wednesday 17th May at the Emirates Old Trafford, while FSE London will take place on Wednesday 13th September at Old Billingsgate.

James Prosser, Managing Director of Front Events, organisers of FSE exhibitions, commented:

“We are very pleased to be announcing two fantastic events which will take place at the magnificent Celtic Manor Resort across two days in June this year. After a successful first year in Cardiff we have rebranded the exhibition as FSE Wales and we have a fantastic exhibition space available, plus incredibly good transport links given the resort is just over the Severn Bridge, off the M4.

“A day later, we are inviting the entire financial services industry to join us for what I’m sure will be a highly competitive day of golf at the hugely impressive Twenty Ten Course at the Celtic Manor, home to the 2010 Ryder Cup. I’m sure there will be plenty of teams out there who think they can emulate Europe’s victory back then, and we are offering a fantastic experience for all teams.

“Coming up to date, it all kicks off for us next month with FSE Glasgow, and with our other shows in Manchester in May, London in September, and the Midlands in November we believe we’re offering advisers right across the country access to a great exhibition. As always we’ll have a strong seminar line-up at each event, plus a varied list of exhibitors to make sure the trip is worth everyone’s while. We’re looking forward to kicking off FSE 2017 in Glasgow and welcoming the UK’s financial services community to at least one of our events this year.”
