ASX adds dealer groups to Find a Planner site
A number of new dealer groups have been added to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) website, Find a Planner, which aims to link ASX website users to an ASX-accredited financial planner.
The recently added dealer groups are Avenue Capital, FMD Financial and Magnitude. The Association of Independently Owned Financial Planners (AIOFP) and Professional Investment Services are also listed on the site.
The ASX website explains that planners represented by the listed dealer groups have undertaken the required level of training to enable them to advise on ASX-listed products.
