In this week’s special edition of Relative Return Insider, we bring you outgoing Financial Services Minister Stephen Jones’ keynote from Momentum Media’s Election 2025 event, followed by a Q&A focused on the Delivering Better Financial Outcomes reforms.

In what may be his final appearance before an advice audience, Jones reflects on his three-year tenure and outlines Labor’s unfinished business in financial advice – and what a returned government would aim to complete.

Tune in to hear:

  • How changes to education standards could revive adviser numbers.
  • Updates on the Compensation Scheme of Last Resort.
  • The role of new advisers in closing the advice gap for retiring Australians.
  • Why Jones believes just six more months could’ve made all the difference.
