Recent changes to the Fit and Proper requirements dictate very clearly that enhanced product knowledge, coupled with continuous professional development is a foregone conclusion. This will of course impact even more on your valuable time and productivity, or force you to specialize and to stick to their fields of expertise.
If the latter is the better option for you, consider the services of a value partner to provide the services you choose to your clients. There are number of major advantages to you:
You share in the fees and remuneration generated
The compliance risk lies with the value partner
You need not be licensed for the products offered by the value partner
No accreditation with bodies such as the Medical Schemes Council
New business opportunities generated in respect of your field of expertise is
referred back to you
Substantial savings on all the infrastructure costs mentioned above
More time to attend to your own field of expertise
Easier compliance
