TCI Capital Advisers’ AFSL cancelled
Concerns over compliance failures have prompted the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) to cancel TCI Capital Advisers' Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL).
ASIC moved to cancel TCI's AFSL after the management of the Melbourne-based advice group failed to ensure the company had adequate financial resources to provide its services.
ASIC also revealed the company had failed to lodge audited accounts for the financial years 2010 to 2014 within the required timeframe.
