AIFA announces RDR exhibitions
25 Mar 2009
The Association of Independent Financial Advisers (AIFA) is set to host a number of exhibitions and roadshows across the UK, it has announced.
Chris Cummings, director general of the organisation, explains the events are taking place to provide support to those facing Retail Distribution Review (RDR) challenges.
He explained some of AIFA''s members feel the current RDR proposals from the UK Financial Services Authority do not provide quite enough information to help them prepare for the future.
As such, live support events will take place around the country to provide help and information to those who feel they need it.
Peter Mann, chief development officer at Skandia, sponsor of the web-based AIFA Academy, added: "We are delighted to be supporting these practical roadshows and the new online academy."
Launched in 1999, AIFA is a lobby group which aims to ensure the business and regulatory environment is positive for its members.
