LAM is a very easy licensee to deal with, no continual over burdening of compliance (as opposed to our previous licence – who wanted us to spend more time on compliance than servicing our clients), coupled with a great team always available for assistance. I have found the whole experience to be excellent and it has certainly exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend LAM to other advisers, particularly those advisers aligned with institutions, having the issues I previously had before moving across. The whole process to move was uncomplicated, completed with ease and the group as a whole is professionally managed, offering a wide range of additional benefits and services to their advisers.

How Do I Obtain a Financial Services Licence?In Australia, you need a financial services licence (AFSL) to operate a financial services business. The licensing process can be challenging, especially if you're applying for your own AFSL. To qualify, you must demonstrate your competency, have sufficient financial resources, and meet key requirements such as training, compliance, insurance, and dispute resolution. Given the rigorous approval process, many advisers opt to partner with dealer groups like LAM, which offer comprehensive support and simplify the licensing process.
