Q&A

Question: I provide general financial information on my website – do I need a license?

Answer:

You are required to obtain an Australian financial services license if you are looking to set up a financial services business. If you are simply providing general financial information, you do not necessarily need to obtain one. If you are unsure, we recommend that you speak to an experienced business lawyer.
