Financial Planning Week gets underway
As part of Financial Planning Week, the Financial Planning Association (FPA) is running a number of seminars on financial advice and financial planning information, including running seminars promoting the value of quality financial advice to consumers around the country, and hosting several seminars aimed at teaching women about taking better care of their finances and the value of financial advice.
The FPA is also running seminars focused on teaching younger generations how to take care of their finances in a recessionary environment, and a seminar on property investing and the financial implications of the 2009 Budget for consumers.
Financial Planning Week will run until May 31.
