IT SUPPORT · FINANCIAL ADVISERS

IT Support & Managed IT
for Financial Advisers.

You hold your clients' entire financial picture — and your AFSL depends on protecting it. Clarity keeps advice practices across the Northern Rivers, Gold Coast and Brisbane secure, compliant and running smoothly, from the first SOA to the annual review.

WHAT KEEPS PRINCIPALS UP AT NIGHT

The IT risks unique to an advice practice.

Financial advisers are a top target for cybercriminals — you hold identity documents, TFNs, bank details and the ability to move client money. One incident can trigger a breach report, an ASIC review and a loss of client trust.

AFSL & ASIC obligationsYour licence requires adequate risk management and resources. We help you evidence the IT controls ASIC and RG 104 expect.
BEC & payment fraudBusiness email compromise is the number-one loss for advisers. A spoofed rollover or redraw request can move six figures — we shut that door.
Client data confidentialityFact-finds, statements and identity docs are gold to attackers. Encryption and access control keep sensitive files locked down.
Records retentionYou must keep advice records for seven years. We ensure immutable, retrievable archives that stand up to an audit or complaint.
Platform & portal uptimeWhen XPLAN or your platform login is down mid-review, the meeting stalls. We keep the tools you rely on fast and available.
Paraplanner & outsourced accessOffshore paraplanning and referral partners need controlled, revocable access — never a shared password and a crossed finger.
SECURITY & COMPLIANCE

Protect the licence,
protect the client.

We harden your practice against the fraud and breach scenarios advisers actually face, and give you the documented controls your licensee, PI insurer and clients now demand.

  • Payment-fraud defences — MFA, verified call-backs and email authentication to stop BEC and redirected funds.
  • Secure client portals — encrypted document exchange so SOAs and identity docs never travel as email attachments.
  • Retained & immutable records — seven-year backups that are tested, tamper-proof and instantly retrievable.
