Adviser compliance support

Never before has your choice in an Adviser group been so important, or confusing. Whether you are a sole operator, or part of a bigger operation, the new regulatory regime means you and your business will face a multitude of new challenges. We recommend that Advisers that currently have their own clients and operate as a standalone business consider becoming a Financial Advice Provider (FAP). This enables you to control your destiny, potentially maximize revenues, and run your business the way you want to, within the confines of the new regulatory regime. Above all else that means having a proactive

Dealer groups warn of rising costs under new regime

Bank licensing conditions for Advisers

Finally, some good news!  About licensing?  Yes, as you shall soon see. You may or may not be aware that there has been a lot of discussion behind the scenes of late regarding the retail banks' approach to the licensing of Advisers.  That's you.  Most (all) of that discussion has revolved around the 'belief' that Advisers will operate directly under the umbrella of a dealer group.  That's us at Newpark. That has some serious implications.  It means that Newpark would assume joint liability for your conduct and culture.  It means costs would skyrocket.  It means that you would effectively become
