Royal Commission recommendations are due for implementation in 2021 - have you prepared?
As part of the Royal Commission recommendations, there are a raft of changes coming our way, including independence declaration, the banning of advice fees inside MySuper products and the widening of reference checking processes industry wide. These changes will all require some level of action to accommodate, but there are two changes which we believe are most significant that licensees should start acting on now (if they haven’t already) which are the breach reporting and ongoing fee arrangement changes.
Mind the gap: Every Licensee has its compliance shortcomings
Over the past year, one of my clearest take outs from consulting to licensees and practices regarding compliance is that it’s almost never actually about “compliance”
Prepare for ASIC to focus on small end of town
Businesses need to plan for the fact that ASIC could come into their business. Explaining something away or saying “I haven’t done that sorry” no longer cuts it when you run a licensee. If they do come in, they are not going to worry about how you feel.
A fence at the top of the hill: changing how we think about “compliance”
Perspective is a powerful thing. Ask a financial adviser about “compliance” and you’re likely to get a grimace, a shrug or some kind of grunt. This is largely because compliance as we know it has been built and framed the wrong way.
Watch the knee-jerk when thinking about self-licensing
Make sure you understand all the risks and costs of self-licensing. A common view is that the cost to go self-licensed is minimal and there are players out there to help with the application and the outsourced services, particularly compliance. While this is true to a certain extent, my view is that it excludes some pretty important considerations.
