About This Podcast

The great transformation of Australia's financial advice industry from predominantly bank-owned to a more fragmented mix of independently licensed and like-minded collective tie-ups has occurred swiftly during the past year and a half, with the impact of these changes on business partnerships continuing to play out. This new podcast series, created and produced by Professional Planner, is a conversational-style exploration of the advice landscape that draws on industry thought-leaders, experts and practitioners who are forging ahead with new partnerships, augmenting business models and adapting to new technologies.
