    Obviously gearing up for the open slather ASIC is about to hand their internal sales/customer retention staff under the guise of financial advice. Like other industry funds, CBUS does not give a stuff about the ‘importance of advice for members’. They do everything they can to block their members from accessing independent financial advice. IFA should remember what that acronym stands for and avoid publishing this sort of nonsense
