Build in-house SoA capability without adding risk
Safely train experienced offshore staff to produce compliant Statements of Advice under clear structure and controls.
Most advice businesses don’t struggle because they lack clients. They struggle because Statements of Advice become the bottleneck. Drafts take longer. Reviews pile up. Advisers end up rewriting sections themselves. This program is designed to remove that pressure without compromising compliance.

What Makes This Course Different
Compliance - first design
Section - by - section SOA walkthroughs
Real - world case studies
Hands - on modelling practice
Ongoing coaching and feedback
This course does not replace professional judgement.
