Hi There

 

 
As the year winds down and the event calendar goes into overdrive, I’m off to channel my inner explorer on a three-week safari in South Africa! Don't worry though, we will still be sending out our weekly newsletter courtesy of Katie and Deb. While their updates might not be as flamboyant as mine, they’ll still have all the latest news and insights!

Don't forget we have our ASFA NSW Regs and Legs on Monday 14 October with Kathryn Ginns from Source, and Julie Hartley from Hamilton Locke, presenting on Marketing of Financial Products and Services. Plus we have our PDS Managers roundtable coming up in November and we are having a hybrid event - see the details below. 

 

Cheers

Sarah 

Mayflower CEO
