About

A licensee that works closely with the businesses it authorises

AFSL Management provides the licensing framework, compliance support and oversight that sit behind financial services businesses operating as authorised representatives.

Our story

AFSL Management was established to give financial services businesses a licensee they can work with closely.

We have chosen to work with a select group of representatives, so that each business is properly understood before it is appointed and properly supported once it is.

We appoint suitable advisory firms, advisers and fund managers as Corporate Authorised Representatives under our licence. Each arrangement is assessed individually and set out in writing, so both sides know what is expected from the start.

Our role is to provide the framework, compliance support and oversight a licensee is responsible for, while leaving representatives room to run their businesses their own way. Alongside licensing and compliance, we support fund managers with distribution and capital raising in Australia, and help private companies raise growth capital.

Our approach

Measured, practical and clear about obligations

Our standard process for assessing, appointing and supporting every representative under our licence.

  1. 01

    Careful assessment

    We get to know each business before any appointment. If an arrangement isn’t the right fit, we’ll explain our reasons openly.

  2. 02

    Clear terms

    The scope of authorisation, conditions and responsibilities are agreed in writing before services begin.

  3. 03

    Practical support

    We help representatives understand how compliance requirements apply to the way they work.

  4. 04

    Ongoing oversight

    We remain closely involved after appointment, providing ongoing supervision for as long as you operate under our licence.

Julien’s story

Julien Brodie

Managing Director

“I founded AFSL Management because growing financial businesses often find licensing and compliance harder than it needs to be. I wanted to offer a clearer alternative: a licensee that takes the time to understand each business and supports it in practical, sensible ways.

That is why we work with a select group of representatives rather than appointing as many as possible. It lets us give every business proper attention, from the first assessment through to day-to-day compliance questions.

Alongside licensing, we help fund managers and private companies connect with suitable investors, so each business can grow with the right support behind it.

Our team works closely with every client, and I stay personally involved in each relationship.”
