"To ensure that advisers have access to the most up-to-date information, the CPD Hub will be regularly updated with new material."
- Steven Cameron, Pensions Director at Aegon
Aegon’s CPD Hub provides a user-friendly interface for financial advisers to access a library of learning resources. Presented by industry experts, these resources count towards advisers’ annual structured CPD requirements.
Modules available at launch include Consumer Duty: The latest developments & looking ahead; Regulatory Change: Latest proposals from the Government & regulators; Client Referrals: Strategies to grow your business.
Aegon decided to establish this CPD Hub after the recent ‘NextWealth: Managing Lifetime Weath’ Report (sponsored by Aegon) found that regulatory influence is the primary cause of adviser concerns and challenges over the next three and five years. Notably, 31% of advisers identified regulatory influence as their main concern over the next three years.
“We’ve introduced our CPD Hub to support the growing concerns and challenges faced by advisers in the market. This resource provides advisers with material to help navigate this ever-evolving environment, while assisting in achieving structured CPD goals” said Steven Cameron, Pensions Director at Aegon.
He said: “Adviser feedback highlights that the changing regulatory landscape is a top concern over the next three and five years. Regulatory influence, including government and regulatory changes such as Consumer Duty looms large and continues to shape our industry.”
“With a General Election fast approaching, the stakes are even higher […] These resources are specifically designed to assist advisers in their crucial role, enabling them to stay well-informed and effectively navigate the complex regulatory landscape for the benefit of their clients,” Steven concluded.
