Regulation

After the fall-out from the FSA’s recent platform policy paper, CWC Research’s Clive Waller warns the regulator is not concerned enough about consumer outcomes

Lyssa Barber of specialist financial recruitment company Allemby Hunt explains the growing importance of a staff retention strategy.

Standard Life champions fee-charging advisers and will invest cash which it previously paid out as commission in the business so it can help IFAs meet customers' needs post RDR, its UK CEO Paul Matthews said.

Laura Miller asks who should benefit when commission is replaced by fees?

Advisers say the FSA is letting firms down by failing to rubber-stamp key rules, preventing them from planning into next year and beyond.

Are you prepared for the major changes in distributing financial services products that will occur over the next few years?

The Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is pressing ahead with three points raised by complaints about the Money Advice Service (MAS).

The overwhelming majority of independent financial advisers (IFA) support the Treasury Select Committee's (TSC) call for a 12-month delay to the implementation of the retail distribution review (RDR).

Clive Waller explains why he is backing the trade body's decision to open its doors to restricted advisers.

A former IFA has been sentenced to more than six years in jail for conning elderly clients out of £468,000.
