Our Commitment to you

_______

Our commitment to you is this: we will work tirelessly to help build a thriving future for financial advice. An environment that understands and supports what you need as an adviser, and a New Zealand in which getting advice is a given – a tool for life that Kiwis naturally look to.

As your professional body, you can count on us to champion the role of quality advice, and you – the individual that helps Kiwis thrive. You can count on us to invigorate pride and trust in your profession, and to drive widespread awareness of the value you offer. You can count on us to help you navigate the changing environment – be that regulatory change or technological advances.

As a member of Financial Advice New Zealand, amongst many benefits, you’re part of an association that’s constantly out in the public informing Kiwis about quality advice; you stand out from the crowd as an adviser committed to quality advice and good outcomes for Kiwis; you’re supported by a decisive and active voice that advocates for your needs and always seeks opportunities to make a positive difference.
