ASIC Ongoing Advice Evidence

Every client communication is logged with content and consent records, providing evidence of ongoing value delivery for ASIC ongoing advice compliance.

The Challenge

Common email marketing automation challenges facing financial services businesses.

ASIC ongoing advice obligations require demonstrable value delivery between annual reviews, but the practice has no systematic communication programme to evidence this.

Regulatory changes that affect client portfolios are communicated slowly and inconsistently, missing the opportunity to demonstrate proactive advice value.

The practice sends no email marketing because of concern about ASIC advertising regulations, which is an overreaction to a manageable compliance requirement.

Prospects who attended a seminar or downloaded content are never nurtured, even though they have demonstrated interest in the type of advice the practice provides.

Implementation

How we implement email marketing automation for your financial services business.

Segment by Client Type and Advice Need

Contacts are segmented by advice type (wealth management, risk insurance, superannuation, SMSF), asset level, life stage, and engagement status. Prospects, active clients, and former clients receive distinct communications.

✓ Tools: Mailchimp, XPLAN, Make

Design Compliant Financial Education Campaigns

Email templates are created for market commentary, legislative updates, financial literacy content, and webinar invitations. All content is reviewed against ASIC regulatory guidance for financial product advertising.

✓ Tools: Mailchimp, Canva, Make

Automate Regulatory and Lifecycle Triggers

Superannuation cap changes, tax threshold updates, and Centrelink age pension changes trigger timely communications to affected client segments. Annual review preparation sequences are automated.

✓ Tools: Make, Mailchimp, XPLAN

Track Engagement with Compliance Audit Trail

All communications are logged with content records and consent status. Engagement data identifies clients actively seeking information, signalling advice opportunities or potential compliance needs.

✓ Tools: Mailchimp, XPLAN, Google Sheets
