Helping investors traverse financial markets and build their wealth during the peaks and troughs is Janus Henderson Investors head of Australia Matt Gaden's game plan. He tells Karren Vergara why in this long game of investing, active management wins.
It's high time some reason returned to the financial services industry. Opt-in is so dangerous for both advisers and their clients because of human inertia (some businesses have done very well from human inertia).
Ditto for conflicted remuneration. The industry is already over-regulated and the former government seemed intent on adding to the onerousness of it.
I agree wholeheartedly Paul Herring. Let conflicts of interest continue to rule financial advisers' remuneration package!
