The Chartered Body Alliance - the professional body group backed by the CII and CISI - has urged the FCA to beef up its plans for a directory of individuals to make it easier for consumers to find advisers committed to high professional standards.

The CISI has announced the winner of its £2,500 Chartered Wealth Manager Scholarship for 2018.

The CISI, the global professional body for securities, investment, wealth and Financial Planning professionals, has relocated to its new office premises in Sri Lanka at 345, R.A De Mel Mawatha, Colombo 03.

A financial services alliance, with a combined global membership of 200,000, has called on the FCA to “do more to support professionalism in UK financial services.”
