What makes an economist an economist? TCorp chief economist Brian Redican reflects on over three decades of navigating Australia's economic cycles. Riddhima Talwani writes.
It is time the Labor Party and their comrades in the Industry Super Funds network realised that the ball game has now changed and we have adults running the show who do not have particular ideological agendas. Opt in should never have been legislated as clients can leave a Planner when ever they choose to do so.
The inclusion of FDS for pre-1/7/2013 clients was added by stealth by shifty Bill when the legislation was released even though this had never been proposed in all original negotiations. All this did was add costs to the provision of Financial Planning Services with no benefit to the consumer.
I am writing as a Chartered Accountant who has been providing Financial Planning Services for nearly 27 years. I am sure I would have a better understanding of this profession than either Bernie Ripoll of David Whitely.
Bernie Ripoll is still out of touch with the Financial Services Industry and does not understand. Did not understand before and produced a report that was biased against advisers and planners whom he quite clearly detests and wants expunged.
This is why the ALP has no idea of where it is going. The next thing we will have is Ripoll endorsing the idea that Unions are free of corruption and scams and the at the earth is flat.
Surely the ALP can find someone better than Ripoll to be the shadow Minister.
