The Good King FCA last looked out
On the feast of pension transfers,
They decided not to mess about
Ban cold calling and stop good advice saboteurs
IFA Darren Cooke should be credited
With pushing for this pension cold call banning
The industry should now be uninhibited
To whistle blow any scamming
AI Rush organised another Great Pension Debate
And worked with the Welsh steelworkers
Saving many of them from a reckless and penniless fate
He put faith back into advice for many industry observers
The Langcat pounced with usual gusto and fury,
They reported on the state of the advised platform nation
And sold their report on re-platforming and IPO’s
That’s got us all awaiting their new year flotation
Rory Percival led reviews
On DB pensions and cash flow modeling
His guides demanded a granular view
For a professional approach that is quite eye boggling
Industry top geezer Andy Hart
Pioneered Humans Under Management
Hat Tip Nick spoke with gusto and took apart
The attitude to risk-capacity for loss argument
Industry sage Phil Young wrote with glee
About consultancy and a road less travelled
It’s a tough road to take believe you me
Building new tech can leave you battled
Para-planners have come of age
Offering advisers practical support
The NextGen planners have rattled the industry cage
Both ensure professionalism doesn’t fall short
RegTech platforms gather pace
Saving firms time and money
They will help streamline the regulatory workplace
And make Compliance jobs rather yummy
Robo-adviser’s can’t seem to gain much ground
As an alternative to advisers
This means they can collaborate
With advice firms and work as financial organisers
The Senior Managers and Certification Regime
Hangs like a nightmare before Christmas,
This new FCA accountability regime
Will ensure good conduct and professionalism in our business
BIG FINISH
So bring me beer and bring me wine
We need to seek some sanctuary
2018’s business and politics has been a crazy time
We need to drink, laugh and be merry
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY, PROSPEROUS AND COMPLIANT 2019
