Advice businesses, large and small, are looking strategically at ways to help them develop a more resilient and profitable business.

With a vision to enable advice without conflict, Paragem offers a non-aligned licence to independently-minded practices striving for excellence in advice, freeing up advisers to focus their efforts on growing their business and servicing their clients.

With previously independently-minded dealer groups rapidly being consumed into an emerging oligopoly of distribution, professional advisers are seeking an environment more clearly separating the functions of advice and product.

The Paragem AFSL licence meets this requirement, with advisers free to develop an advice-based business and select the best platform and products for their clients, while receiving expert operational support and retaining if not enhancing many of the scale benefits currently available through institutional dealer groups.
