Description
Regulation of Australian Financial Services is designed for those who are planning to take on the role of a responsible manager for an Australian Financial Services (AFSL) licensee and/or needs a refresher of Australian regulations. Comply with ASICs regulatory guide 105 Licensing: Organisational competence.
If your nominated Responsible Manager has been working outside Australia in recent years, ASIC may seek specific demonstration of knowledge of the regulation of Australian financial services.
Upon completion of Regulation of Australian Financial Services you should be able to:

This online course is practical, and contains scenarios, checklists and exercises.
What Certification do you achieve?
On successful completion, candidates will be awarded a Certificate of Attainment confirming they have successfully demonstrated knowledge of Regulation of Australian Financial Services.
We also provide a supplementary course outline which details the content covered in the topics. This can be form part of the supporting material supplied to ASIC with:
