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.
What a shame the Government has caved in again to the pressure of big industry vested interests. The commission debate with insurances should have been sorted years ago in the "best interests" of clients. Whilst ever a large part of the advice industry remuneration is commission-based it will never be considred a "profession". The lobby groups are more interested in the "value" af an adviser's business rather than the services that business should be offering to clients at a reasonable fee.
