result to the poll we ran in 2016, almost eight in ten advisers taking part in our poll (78 percent) think the present Government will deliver a better financial services industry in future for advisers and consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Comparing our 2016 and 2019 polls, there are a few more votes in 2019 to retain the Coalition and a few less saying it won&#8217;t make any difference.<\/p>\n<p>Like 2016, however, a new Labor Government is only seen by a very small percentage of advisers (three percent) as being better for the industry and consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another reminder of the outcome of our 2016 poll asking the same question:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riskinfo.com.au\/news\/files\/2019\/04\/190416-Latest-Poll.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

issues around grandfathered investment and superannuation commissions following the FoFA reforms or the future of life insurance commissions if ASIC delivers an adverse finding in its 2021 review.<\/p>\n<p>Other policy differences exist between the two major Parties, but their differing stance when it comes to adviser remuneration is perhaps the most high-profile and significant in terms of the future shape of the advice sector.<\/p>\n<p>Our own poll remains open for another week, as the Federal Election poll tightens slightly, but where Federal Labor remains the favourite to form a new Government after the May 18 election&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most advisers believe a returned Coalition Government after the May election will deliver a
