Financial Services Guide

This Financial Services Guide has been designed to help you make an informed decision about the financial services and products we can provide to you as a retail client. It contains information about the financial services we offer, how we and others are remunerated in relation to these services and how your complaints are dealt with. This part of the FSG deals with the relationships this authorised representative has with this Licensee (AGA Assistance Australia Pty Ltd). If applicable, the relationships the authorised representative may have with other FSR licensees must also be described in other parts of the FSG and given to you at the same time.

Where required, you will also be given a Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
