myIntegrity in Practice (myIP) - FASEA Standards & Exam Advisory Programs

• Melbourne, Australia

• Principal

  • Jan 2019 - Present

  I believe the FASEA Standards represent an enormous opportunity to "reset" the Financial Advice industry and the Standards create an ideal ethical platform for the evolution of the industry and a framework for the Next Generation of Financial Advisers. myIntegrity in Practice (myIP) solutions include our high-regarded FASEA EXAM PREPARATION Programs, individual Career Pathway advice to New Financial Advisers, individual Adviser Education Health Checks, tailored Adviser Higher Education Plans, CPD programs, and guidance to Licensees on Professional Year Program requirements for New Financial Advisers. Our Programs are designed to help Financial Advisers, who are often time-poor and overwhelmed by the amount of change currently taking place, “filter out and distill” all the noise and confusion regarding the FASEA Standards so they can focus on the important aspects. The aim is to provide peace of mind that the actions they take will be compliant, worthwhile and not a waste of their time. Show less
