Ken Davy: Do your bit to influence FAMR outcome
While most of us were enjoying a relaxing Christmas and New Year submerged in wrapping paper, chocolates and other festive treats, I wonder if we spared more than a passing thought for the thousands of folk in places like Yorkshire, Cumbria and Scotland who were hit by unprecedented floods.
Bad as it was for those involved, the likelihood is that, while momentarily sympathetic, we soon went back to living our own lives and our own concerns.
In a similar vein, as financial advisers, while we get upset, frustrated and, yes, angry when we are immersed in, perhaps even drowning under the weight of, unprecedented regulation, the rest of the business and political world generally carries on as normal.
