This policy proposal paper considers how the licensing regime – Parts 7.6 to 7.8 of the Financial Services Reform Bill 2001 (the Bill) – will apply to financial product advice and dealing. The proposals are based on the Bill introduced into Parliament on 5 April 2001. These proposals will be reviewed if the Bill is changed in its passage into legislation.

The policy proposals cover:

• What is 'financial product advice'? (Section A)
• How is financial product advice regulated? (Section B)
• Is the advice personal advice or general advice? (Section C)
• What is dealing? (Section D)
