• Improve Business Efficiency: by gathering key information from prospects and existing clients prior to meetings and providing a structured client engagement process that seamlessly flows information through a series of tools with no need to re-input data.
• Improve Compliance: by taking clients through our Goals Based Advice and Scoping of Advice tool and quickly and easily producing Letters of Engagement and Ongoing Service Agreements as well as comprehensive file notes for a thorough audit trail.
• Educate Clients: by collaborating with the client to both understand their needs and explain the benefits of the financial planning process and to simplify the often complex strategies choices available to them.
• Increase Value: by using the financial planning strategy modeling calculators live with the client to visually illustrate how particular strategies could benefit them.
• Increase Client Retention & Sales: by showing real value and to easily justify fee-for-advice.
• Increase Marketing: by using the marketing tools to promote their services and gain new prospects and clients.

The Association of Independently Owned Financial Professionals [AIOFP] was registered in 1998 by a group of independently owned Advisers to differentiate their practices in an institutionally dominated market place. To be a member the practice must not have any institutional ownership, be of good fame and operate its own AFSL. The AIOFP now also accepts individual members under these conditions.

AIOFP’s founding objective was to protect and promote the interests of members and their clients without fear or favour, we have and always will act in our members best interests. AIOFP’s point of difference to other market options is its members, Board and management are all from the independently owned sector - we are not influenced or dictated to by other agendas or factions in our membership.

The AIOFP are pleased that ASIC has recently recognised the role AIOFP and its members play by allowing our members to display the AIOFP logo on promotional material subject to a suitable disclaimer.

AIOFP is the largest Association representing the Independently owned sector with over 6,000 advisers in its membership.
