How do you know what you don’t know?  Much has changed since the introduction of the Financial Advisers Act 2008 and the original level 5 qualification. Today, financial advisers need to have the competence, knowledge, and skill to:

• Meet the new Code of Professional Conduct for AFAs
• Understand and apply newly introduced legislation and regulation
• Understand and implement the FMA’s expectations outlined in their numerous guidance notes.

All of this is covered in in the new level 5 qualification (New Zealand Certificate in Financial Services level 5).  Code Standards 14 and 15 require all AFAs to ensure they are meeting the content of this new qualification.

Suitable for: Every AFA, (plus RFAs who have completed their NCFS (5)), who wants to update their knowledge, competency and skill to meet the requirements of the New Zealand Certificate in Financial Services Level 5.

Cost: Only $89 plus GST for existing Radar subscribers - includes a complimentary electronic copy of the new Strategi Institute handbook, Regulatory guide for the financial services industry: A key resource for authorisation.  Edition 3
