PLATYPUS ASSET MANAGEMENT HOLDINGS PTY LTD
As the new chief executive of Platypus Asset Management, Jelena Stevanovic hopes to continue the fund manager's long tradition of outperformance with patience and by fostering meaningful relationships with clients and staff. Karren Vergara writes.
The continuing lack of common sense & accountability & responsibility never ceases to amaze me. Here is the Lead person for ASIC again as a prime example. If you are an authorised rep under an AFSL - the AFSL already has to ensure that you meet all of your ongoing CPD/Training & have to be fit/proper for purpose - otherwise WHY are the AFSL's licencing them in the 1st place ?
Another beautiful "handball" too about the exam - yes we are responsible for administering it, but we have nothing to do with the format or what is in it - i.e. Not My Problem !!! And Stephen Jones wants to hire an extra 8,000 public servants.
If you are an authorised representative under an AFSL and registered on the Financial Adviser Register - ASIC should simply be able to "copy and paste" the list to FCSP - this should be a "No Brainer"
