Gains and Losses - Multiple Dates
We have added a new dashboard that will show the net change of advisers for both licensee owners and individual licensees over 1, 3 and 6 months, plus 1 and 2 years. The time frames are linked to the latest ASIC Data release. Therefore, 1 year covers the last year to Aug 11, 2022.
We have added this dashboard as we generally focus on calendar and financial years. However, they can be misleading timeframes as so much movement over recent times have revolved around Dec 31 (FASEA Exam requirements) and June 30 / July 1 which sees a lot of advisers switch licensees to coincide with the financial year.
Members can access this dashboard under Fast Facts - Dashboard 2B Fast Multi Date View.
The data can be filtered in different ways as can the columns. The image below highlights the column filtered from biggest to smallest by Licensee Owner size (See video demo below for filter details). It shows that Insignia have the largest number of advisers authorised under their collective licensees. Over 1 month, they are down -14, over 3 months -49 through to -715 over 2 years. Looking at the 2 year mark, few of the large licensee owners are positive, with Count up 21 and Capstone at 15.
When sorted by 1 year, (Not shown) AIA is out in from at 49 followed by Count at 32, ASVW Holdings at 22 and Oreana at 16.
