Welcome to the summer addition of Adviser Today.
2018 is passing us at a rate of knots, and it is hard to believe that we are already more than halfway into the year.
So, has it been a good or bad six months for the adviser community? Well, the usual challenges are in place; an (over) abundance of regulatory change – and this year we have treated to new policy from not the FCA, but also the ICO – immoral behaviour in the worlds of crypto-currency and workforce pension schemes and still far too many disreputable ‘phoenixes’ returning from the ashes.
However, I believe that 2018 has brought a great deal of positive news for advisers so far.
