The Australian and New Zealand Institute of Insurance and Finance (ANZIIF) has launched new Level 5 equivalent compliance training for New Zealand advisers in general insurance.

The new offer defines the standards of competence, knowledge and skill prescribed in the Code of Professional Conduct for Financial Advice Services, which comes into effect from March 15.

ANZIIF is the only educator actively advocating Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) in the NZ market for this Certification. This popular option limits formal studies to just the new components required under the code, covered in a specially tailored, bridging unit.

“There are many experienced and skilled General Insurance Brokers that have undertaken professional studies with ANZIIF or have proven experience in the field and deserve to have their competencies recognised,” John Lyon, Ando Insurance CEO and ANZIIF board member, said.
