There has been a slowdown in the growth of provisional advisers this week, according to data from Wealth Data.
Data for the week ending 28 October found there was growth of four provisional advisers and two who ceased after several strong weeks of higher numbers.
Overall, there was a net loss of five advisers indicating that losses following the expiry of the financial adviser exam deadline on 30 September had slowed down.
