2 Welcome from the President Dacian Moses As you can see Our Annual Conference is different this year. A new State A new Format A new Process A new Look A new Price - all inclusive (Early Bird rate) A new Buddy system for New Members or 1st time Conference Attendees A new, more structured Program including expert, paid Speakers New Social Events to enhance networking and sharing of ideas This conference is a celebration of how far we have come with acknowledgement the journey has not been easy. To go from having a good to great sustainable self-licensed financial planning practice, a practice of the future, will require rewinding and recalibrating as we move forward to increase the standard of advice and instil confidence in the consumer to seek financial advice. We have welcomed your feedback from past conferences and the Committee have put together a conference that still has at it's core, hearing from members and what has worked for them. In addition, this year we have professional paid speakers who are not only engaging but who will present invaluable content for all to take away and implement in our practices. With a diverse group of members and practices, be assured there is something for everyone - focusing on practice management, client engagement, pricing and valuing advice along with investment philosophies and personal development in the form of resilience for what is ahead. As more and more advisers are becoming self licensed and looking to become self licensed, being a member of the BFP has never been more significant. Let's harness our collective energy, let's challenge ourselves to explore, let's share and learn from each other. The conference is as good as the members put in. You will notice the Program at this stage is still in draft form as we call for expression of hot topics. Please ensure you register before 14 th July to secure your Early Bird Rate and to claim a tax deduction for 2015. Having an early commitment from you, will ensure the Conference Program is developed to its full potential. We urge you to block out the time in your busy schedules to attend this conference. All advisers in your practice and support staff are able to attend. A special thanks to the organisers of this Conference - you ROCK! See you at BFP Conference - The Best Investment you will make in 2015!
