LICENSING SOLUTIONS FOR
MODERN FINANCIAL ADVISERS.
By Advisers. For Advisers.
Our Story
We tried being employed advisers.
We tried being self-employed through a traditional dealer group.
It was all too hard, too expensive and ultimately affected the advice we could give.
Instead we decided to create a modern AFSL that solved the problems we were (and are) having as advisers. We’re aiming for efficient, common sense compliance. We don’t want a percentage of your business; so we’ve decided to stick with reasonable, fixed fees. And we’re sure you understand when we say… we have an APL “without an agenda”.
Why are we called COBALT ADVISERS? … we just like the colour.
