We will only provide services to you, with your prior, informed consent. If you do not understand any of the information in this FSG or have any other questions relating to the terms on which we will be acting, please contact us.
In providing our services, other financial matters may arise. However, we are not authorised to provide services in relation to any financial product except those listed in this FSG. You should seek specific advice from the appropriate professionals on other matters relevant to you.
What is general advice?
There is an important difference between ‘general advice’ and ‘personal advice’. We provide you with ‘general advice’ which means that we have not considered any of your individual objectives, financial situation and needs. If we provide you with general advice, we will provide you with a warning that the advice may not be appropriate to your needs, financial situation or objectives.
Please retain this FSG for your reference and any future dealings with us. We may also add documents at a later date which will also form part of this FSG, and these should be read together with the FSG. These documents will include the word ‘FSG’ in the heading.
What risks are involved in trading the financial products we may advise you on?
The derivative products we provide general advice on involve risk. A description of the risks associated with each product will be outlined in detail in the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS), which will be provided to you by the product issuer.
You should consider the information contained in the relevant PDS before investing in or trading on any financial market.
Other documents you may receive.
We may provide other documentation as required. These documents may include educational material, client agreements or other offer documents.
What fees and commissions are payable to us?
Fees for providing you with our services may be received by either the Licensee or Fundamental Trends Australia.
All fees described in this FSG include GST unless otherwise stated. We will explain all fees payable by you prior to any general financial product advice being offered to you.
Associations and relationships which may influence our advice to you
From time to time, we may accept alternative forms of remuneration from product providers or other parties, such as hospitality or support connected with our professional development (e.g. training or sponsorship to attend conferences). We maintain a register detailing any benefit we receive which is valued at between $100 and $300, and other benefits that relate to information technology, software or support provided by a product issuer, or that relate to education and training purposes.
What should you do if you have a complaint?
If you have a complaint, you can contact us using the details provided in this FSG and discuss your complaint. We will try and resolve your complaint quickly, fairly and within prescribed timeframes.
Alternatively, you can contact our Licensee using any of the contact details provided in this FSG.
If the complaint cannot be resolved to your satisfaction within 30 days, you have the right to refer the matter to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (“AFCA”). AFCA provides a fair and independent financial services complaint resolution that is free to consumers.
You can also contact ASIC on the Freecall Infoline: 1300 300 630. This is another alternative that you may use to make a complaint and obtain information about your rights.
