ASIC cancels license of Michael James Haley
Australian Financial Services (AFS) licensee Michael James Haley has been banned from providing financial advice by the regulator after he was found to have ceased to carry on a financial services business.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) said Haley had held an AFS license as an individual since March 2004 but did not currently work at or in a financial services business.
Haley’s license cancellation was effective as of 1 November 2017.
