fi360 - Courses and Seminars:

Accredited Investment Fiduciary Program (AIF^®)

The vast majority of people who have the legal responsibility for managing someone else’s money receive little or no formal training, and what little is provided is rarely comprehensive. Yet, fiduciaries must be able to demonstrate that portfolio assets are being prudently managed and that sound investment practices are being followed. The training provided by fi360 provides a comprehensive overview of fiduciary standards of care, asset allocation, preparation of investment policy statements, manager search and due diligence, performance measurement, and other related subjects.

ASFA AIF^® Course - (Association of Superannuation Funds Australia)

With the current focus on the fiduciary responsibilities of superannuation trustees, fi360 (Australasia) Ltd has worked with ASFA to create a dynamic online solution to meet your needs in best practice management, as well as meeting APRA’s ‘fit and proper’ operating standards.

ASFA Accredited Investment Fiduciary (ASFA AIF®) offers a course with the mission of promoting a culture of fiduciary excellence and principle-based leadership to improve the decision-making process of investment fiduciaries.

ASFA AIF® provides you with the skills and knowledge on how to discharge a trustee’s ‘investment governance’ responsibilities.

The course content examines the global standards of best practice to ensure you:

Differentiate with a professional approach
Establish processes worthy of trust
Learn what can get you in trouble and how to keep out of it

This will enable you to critically assess your current governance against defined criteria.
