“In these times we have seen resilience, adaptability and more importantly strengthening of our communities.”
– Katrina Shanks, CEO of Financial Advice NZ

We are excited to invite you to join us for our Financial Advice New Zealand 2020 Conference.

Who would have predicted that 2020 would be the year of a global pandemic. It has bought uncertainty, challenges and opportunities both personally and  professionally. In these times we have seen resilience, adaptability and more importantly the strengthening of our communities.

We have had to be agile, pivot and be aware of our changing environment to stay relevant, engaged and most importantly supportive of financial advisers and their clients.

That is why this year, Financial Advice New Zealand have created a Virtual Conference/ Regional Roadshow for September. Every day for four consecutive days we will be delivering high energy mornings. With keynote speakers, panels, workshops and regulatory updates followed by a Masterclass on Disclosure Requirements.

The conference will be hosted in a different region each day. With Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin each hosting a day’s session and Auckland now being online.  Each session will also be delivered live online. You can choose to attend in person  in your region then online for the other three mornings or just attend all the sessions online. 

This is a unique conference designed for these unique times and we look forward to you joining us.

– Katrina Shanks, CEO of Financial Advice NZ
