About Financial Planning
With the growing complexity in financial markets, changes in superannuation laws and the growing need of the individual to maintain their chosen lifestyle, the need for expert knowledge in planning individuals' financial wealth has increased. Currently there are just over 18,000 financial advisors in Australia working for 749 advisory groups operating over 8,000 practices. Career opportunities can be found with medium to large sized ‘dealer groups' that often operate like a franchise, institutional-owned financial advisor firms with employed advisors, and as an independent financial planner who may have their own licence or work with a licensee.
