Episode 62- The Royal Commission is here
The Royal Commission Report finally came out, and as expected it had a lot of points I think are worthy of an extensive discussion. Joining me today to do just that is my friend James Williamson of Millhaven Financial Services. James and I analyse the Royal Commission Report’s take on financial advice and what it means for those of us in the financial sector. We exchange our interpretations on some of the more critical parts, particularly on personal and business relationships with banks. We also discuss some of the risks and regulations business owners will have to revisit as a response to the report.
Don’t miss this week’s segment of Reuben’s Rant where I share my thoughts on the government’s response to the report and why I believe it is unprecedented and way too politically charged.
