It was during a family sojourn to the seaside town of Pescara, Italy, Rob DeDominicis first laid eyes on what would become the harbinger of his future. Andrew McKean writes.
Again, the Government is trying to fix something that now, is not broken, however, with all the new compliance issues and costs the only thing breaking is Advisers.
I can understand why the Government had do the Royal Commission into banking, this was a time during the early to mid 2000's which had little regard for the needs of clients but of the profit for shareholders. This was never the case for small Advice Business's, who have always had the needs of clients first. We are now being beaten up by the sins of our predecessors.
