Trusted Adviser designation update

Click to apply/register now

Congratulations to the advisers below who are the first to be awarded the Financial Advice NZ Trusted Adviser designation.

The Trusted Adviser designation is awarded to those Financial Advice NZ members who show they have committed to qualifications and continuing professional development obligations at a level higher than that required by New Zealand law and code.  Along with those advisers that have already gained our highest designations of CLUCM and CFPCM, those with the Trusted Adviser designation can use this mark to differentiate themselves in the market.

Applications are open now. Once you have been awarded the Trusted Adviser mark you can use the designation immediately.  Join these advisers by reviewing the criteria and applying today .
