Financial Counsellor Townsville

Townsville financial adviser Anthony Dick has been charged after he accessed and transferred around $1.1 million from his clients’ superannuation, pension and personal savings accounts to fund his personal lifestyle, following an investigation by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). Following an ASIC investigation, Mr Anthony Vivian Dick, a former financial adviser based in Townsville has been charged with eleven counts of dishonestly applying to his own use property belonging to another, contrary to section 408C(1)(a) of the Criminal Code Act 1899 (Queensland).

Under Section 923A of the Corporations Act, a person who carries on a financial services business or provides a financial service is prohibited from using the terms ‘independent’, ‘impartial’ or ‘unbiased’, or any other term ‘of like import’ in relation to the business or service except where the person meets certain conditions, such as not receiving any commissions, volume-based payments or other gifts or benefits. On 17 December 2008, the Commonwealth Bank sent a generic letter to all its Storm clients further reinforcing the banks message of 8 and 9 December 2008 that Storm was the sole manager of the clients margin loan and further adding that Storm was « completely responsible for your the clients financial position… ». The responsibilities will include providing high quality and compliant advice, ensuring client satisfaction, assessment of financial needs, maintaining ongoing service levels and relationships and ensuring the clients goals & objectives are achieved. The practical difference is that ASIC would have known more about what Storm was doing if the company had filed a prospectus, as licensed investment schemes are required to do. But it’s hard to believe ASIC would have closed Storm down or issued warnings strong enough to deter investors. Personal contact and consultation with his clients is essential customer service for Vince. He has almost 40 years experience in this position and has a strong work ethic to ensure that his clients are always given the best and most beneficial advice at all times.
