Financial Standard Comments - Advisers grapple with client retention Financial advisers are losing clients and the ongoing financial services Royal Commission isn't helping. The good news is professional standards reform is helping restore the reputation of the industry, Investment Trends research reveals. https://www.financialstandard.com.au/feed/latest?story=123825298 Wed, 18 Jul 2018 13:49:57 +1000 Wed, 18 Jul 2018 13:49:57 +1000 en-AU Copyright 2026 Financial Standard 5 Comment by Tim Lindsay (Tim Lindsay CFP) I think it is a bit of a stretch to say that 'The good news is professional standards reform is helping restore the reputation of the industry' because the majority of Planners expect a positive outcome from education reforms.
You would be very naive to think that come 1/1/2024, the public is suddenly going to take a different view on the industry. At least not without significant advertising spend (funded by us) and ideally, a change in title. If we are still 'Financial Planners' after that date, irrespective of education etc, then how is that going to changes perception of Planners pre 2024?
