Wheatley to speak at AIFA annual dinner

Being held on Tuesday, 13 November at 8 Northumberland Avenue, the event for the financial adviser community is being sponsored by BlackRock.

Chris Hannant, policy director at AIFA, said: “In the final days before implementation of the Retail Distribution Review this will be a timely opportunity to hear from Martin Wheatley about how the regulator will assist advisers with the transition.

“The event will also provide Martin with the chance to outline how he sees the regulatory environment shaping up under his leadership of the FCA.

“The introduction of a new regulator offers an opportunity to reconsider key issues such as funding, liability for advisers and how supervision takes place in the industry.

“Martin is perfectly placed to impart an informed view on the developments of regulation and change in the sector. Our guests will be keen to hear his thoughts on the likely future of the financial services market.”
