Our latest poll asks you to reflect on the procedures you currently build into your advice process.

As we report elsewhere this week, industry expert, Tony Vidler, says all advisers need to ask themselves two key questions about the nature of every piece of advice they deliver:

  • Why was the advice appropriate for the client at that time?
  • Can you evidence why the advice was suitable at the time?

Are you confident – hand on your heart – that the answer to these two questions resides in each of your client files?

As Vidler notes in his article, unhappy clients have a plethora of options to pursue if they feel they have not received appropriate advice (see: How Can You be Sure Your Advice Will Pass the Test).
