Forming and functioning of Associations are not new to financial advisors as most of us are associated with any one of the Life or General Insurance Agents Associations.They are well organised,registered & structured and well represented.People associated with those organisations can be identified and contacted for organising our IFA district/Division level Associations(Grass root level).That District/Division's office bearers and E.C members elect their Zonal council members and the Zonal Body will elect their National level Leaders/Office Bearers.we at Madurai Division have 21 EC Members representing 7 districts' IFA.We are ready to affiliate our Divisional association with any Zonal council formed at Tamilnadu State Level.Secretary-AMFIA-Madurai Division call:9894242999

I have one more comment on this. Problem with IFA community is that everyone is selfish to the core and hence no unified action is possible. My question to the IFA community is - suppose an all India Federation of IFAs is formed which gives a call to all the IFAs in the country to immediately xstop marketing MF schemes pending reversal of SEBI's draconian decisions, how ma ny of you will co-operate? I am sure not a single IFA will fall in line and that is why I raised the issue of utility of such formations

While welcoming such formations, I would like to know the utility of such associations. Kerala is very good in producing job seekers and not jobs. Kerala is also very good in forming associations, political parties etc. But what happens within these associations is a million dollar question. We have seen IFA associations formed throughout the country when entry load issue first came into force, but these assocaitions are totally defunct today.

Although AKIFAA is formed on the backdrop of the entry load ban in 2009 the association has a very admirable agenda of empowering Members on the knowledge front. It has wide agenda like family welfare activities , knowledge updating, fight against injustice , preparing members for adaptation to changes etc.. The members are issued photo id cards which they use to wear when attending any MF related meets.It's suggestible for all the Associations from other States to have a word with these people before forming an IFA association.

Of course, the regulatory overzealousness is having a catastrophic effect on the industry, but one positive thing that has come out the whole thing is, we "the IFAs" started to join hands and are moving towards unity and respectability. A good start, but we have miles to go, until we command the same kind of respect that some well established professions like CA, CS etc., are getting. Time to work even harder and fight even better.
