CPD obligations – You only have two months to stay in the game

Posted on

31 May 2021, the annual CPD deadline is looming. Are you on track with your required hours? Have you done enough professional reading, attended webinars as well as courses to ensure that you have enough hours for CPD purposes?

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is an essential part of remaining up to date so that financial advisers can serve their clients with expert advice, and act in their best interests. It does not only keep you abreast of what’s going on in a rapidly changing industry, it also gives you a competitive advantage.

As CPD is a regulatory requirement for almost every financial adviser, the importance of it should also not be underestimated. Non-compliance with any Fit and Proper competence requirement, including CPD, will result in regulatory action being taken against the FSP, key individual and/or representative.
