Oz planners in better health than US counterparts

Australian financial planners are in much better health than their US counterparts, according to business advisory publication Business Health.

Its International HealthCheck Analysis gives 83% of Australian planners the highest fit rating, with 9% defined as healthy and only 8% in poor health. This contrasts with the US, where only 9% of planners receive a fit rating, while 25% are healthy and 66% in poor health.

NZ planners also performed creditably in Business Health’s report, with 72% classed as fit, 16% as healthy and only 12% in poor health.
