Politicians to Address FAAA Congress

0

The FAAA Congress will feature both Stephen Jones, Assistant Treasurer, Minister for Financial Services, and Luke Howarth MP, Shadow Assistant Treasurer and Shadow Minister for Financial Services, in a conversational and Q&A session moderated by the FAAA’s CEO Sarah Abood.

Stephen Jones.

The session, “Powering Up the Politics”, will be held at 9.15am on Friday 29 November, in what the association says is an opportunity for both the Minister and the Shadow Minister to update the profession on their views of how to address the challenges facing financial advisers.

It will be the first time both politicians have addressed the profession at the same time, and comes ahead of the Federal election which the FAAA says will likely be held in the first half of next year.

Abood says the session will be an opportunity to hear how both political representatives plan to deal with issues such as:

  • The rising cost of advice
  • Falling numbers of advisers
  • Problems such as the CSLR
