Misson, objectives and strategy
MISSION
Recognising existing initiatives across the sector, the NTA’s mission is to share good practice and augment established routes and resources already available to progress a career in personal finance.
By coordinating input from firms across the financial planning distribution chain, the NTA aims to identify opportunities for delivering better outcomes and providing essential guidance to smaller firms who may not have experience or resources to recruit and train new talent.
OBJECTIVES
The NTA’s six objectives are listed below. They’re underpinned by the commitment to engage with key stakeholders, including regulators and government departments, to influence the development of new talent and address the advice gap:
1. Foster new talent attraction to the advice sector
2. Rally firms to promote careers in financial advice
3. Facilitate cross-sector collaboration on talent initiatives
4. Enhance awareness of available support pathways
5. Offer firms guidance on talent acquisition best practices
6. Elevate public recognition in the value of financial advice
STRATEGY
The NTA Steering Group has identified three key pillars of activity to deliver the objectives above.
