ASIC Statement of Advice (SoA) measures don’t go far enough

Today’s Statements of Advice (SoA) aren’t a powerful or appealing way to deliver information – after all, they are produced in a language and format that most people simply don't understand. Far from helping educate clients, this 'foreign language' only seeks to alienate and confuse them.
