In our article of 25 May by Jason Spits headed “Hammer falls on Wattle Scheme”, we reported that James Gerard Callahan was an authorised representative of Financial Wisdom at the time he was banned for one year. This was incorrect and Callahan has never been an authorised representative of Financial Wisdom and was actually an authorised representative of Australian Financial Services with whom Financial Wis-dom has no relationship.
The error was the result of incorrect information being supplied by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission and not that of editorial staff. We apologise unreservedly to Financial Wisdom for any confusion or harm this may have caused.
