A financial advisor who sells financial products establishes an industry association on the advice of individual customers from a standpoint independent of banks and securities companies. As interest in future asset building grows, there is an aim to improve service quality and increase trust throughout the industry.
Financial advisors called “IFA”, which are not affiliated with banks or securities firms and propose and sell investment trusts and annuity insurance suitable for the individual after listening to the needs of individual customers, have become popular in the United States.
In Japan, an increasing number of people who are independent from securities firms, etc., become financial advisors and become advisors, with approximately 3,800 people operating.
However, in order to earn commissions, there was an issue that some advisors were suspected of revolving buying and selling by frequently buying investment trusts.
For this reason, in order to gain the trust of customers, it is necessary to improve the quality of service for the entire advisor, and we decided to establish an industry association in January next year.
The organization plans to check for advice that does not meet customer requirements and to create customer protection rules.
Mr. Takeshi Fukuda, a founding member, says, “I want to increase the number of human resources who can support from asset management plan to follow-up. I want to work on training and education”.
