The cornerstone of our services is the GOLD BOOK which is an indispensable guide to operating a broking business efficiently and compliantly.

The Gold Book integrates the applicable legal requirements with operational and risk management guidance. It is the only complete summary of the legal requirements applying to financial services businesses.

• Footnoted for easy referencing
• Practical insights and tips
• Easy reading for brokers and compliance staff
• Plain English, business-friendly language

The Gold Books are widely considered to be an industry standard for managing the business operations of an independent insurance intermediary.

The Insurance Broking version of the Gold Book has been used by OAMPS, IBNA, RIBA, Insurance AdviserNet and Steadfast Groups as well as many independent brokers. ASIC, the financial services regulator, uses the Gold Book for educational and reference purposes when reviewing AFSL applications.

In view of the extent of take-up of Gold Seal’s approach, it does seem likely that within a few years insurance intermediaries in Australia will enjoy a consistent standard in operating, risk management and compliance procedures.
