ISO 22222

ISO 22222 is aimed at increasing client confidence in financial planning by providing an internationally agreed benchmark for a high global standard of service. The standard covers the ethical behaviour, competencies and experience required of a financial planner. It also enhances the transparency and efficiency of the process for personal financial planning.

RSL fully supports ISO 22222 certification for advisers within a firm. The recognised certification allows the adviser and their firm to show that they have the necessary skills and systems in place to provide an efficient and professional service, which in turn should lead to a compliant business. ISO 22222 compliments the FSAs TCF initiative and is well received by the FSA as an indication that a firm is placing customers at the heart of their business.

RSL is one firm on the panel of independent Compliance Consultants for Standards International Ltd. Standards International Ltd is the first UKAS accredited certification body specialising in the promotion, training and assessment of financial advisers seeking to achieve ISO 22222.
