Forum on Budget and FOFA impacts
Financial planners will have the opportunity to hear the Federal Opposition's view on the Federal Budget and the Future of Financial Advice changes at a forum convened by the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA).
The forum - in which Money Management is the media partner - will be held on 25 May 2012 and will see the Opposition spokesman for Financial Services Senator Mathias Cormann join with former Howard chief of staff Senator Arthur Sinodinos to not only examine the Budget, but outline the Coalition's alternate approach.
The two politicians will also discuss the work of the Coalition's Deregulation Task Force and cutting red tape.
Commenting on the forum, AFA chief executive Richard Klipin said he believed it represented an opportunity for those in the financial services industry to question two key players dealing with the Coalition's policy development.
