Newsletter Introducers - Clarfication Following on from last months newsletter, there has been some debate over the current Introducer Agreement in that it implies the relationship is between TRER and the Introducer and not the Adviser and Introducer.TRER recognise the hard work our advisers have gone to establish valuable relationships with their Introducers and we would never seek to interfere with this. However, we do have a regulatory responsibility to ensure that all parties are aware of their responsibilities and we do need to maintain a register of all Introducers and ensure agreements are in place.With this in mind, we are changing the wording on the current Introducer Agreement to make the relationship clearer. This will be available from the usual place.
GPDR Following on from the GDPR presentation and the “self-review”, we are now in the final throws of implementing the GDPR procedures.

You must not store your passwords for CRM on your laptop. Be sure to ensure it doesn’t If you lose your laptop or it is stolen, you must report this to either myself, Rob, Sarah or Jo as soon as you become aware and we will ensure that your access to CRM is suspended. CRM itself has end to end encryption using SSL therefore entering or retrieving data should be safe.
GDPR will have a regular slot in these updates as this will provide a forum to discuss issues that arise.
Tracesmart There appears to be some confusion over the use of Tracesmart. Just to clarify, this is now compulsory on all clients as detailed in Rob Brennan’s email dated 16th November 2017. A compulsory field will soon be placed on CRM which could delay case input if you have not done one.
