Helping you specialise in serving industry super fund members

Why this matters

Specialist consulting for super funds

Industry super fund members have unique advice needs. They value education, decision-making, and goal setting over complex portfolio management or tax strategies. Many advisers struggle to adapt their traditional models to meet these expectations profitably and compliantly.

Industry Fund Services (IFS) is offering a limited opportunity for Independent Financial Advisers to access a comprehensive licensing and service proposition, comprising referral opportunities, technology solutions, training and compliance.
