Will an ALP victory accelerate planner exits?



Recent surveying undertaken by Money Management has revealed that upwards of 30 per cent of financial planners intend to depart the industry because of an end to grandfathering and the Financial Adviser Standards and Ethics Authority regime, but will a change of Government make any difference?
The Australian Labor Party has foreshadowed a range of policy changes with respect to franking credits, negative gearing and family trusts while signalling that it will be implementing many of the recommendations of the Royal Commission but few other changes directly impacting financial advisers.
Money Management therefore wants to know what you think. Will an ALP victory on 18 May influence your decisions about your future in the industry?
