Try some questions from the course

Question 1 of 3

Where does a suitability decision begin?

 

Suitability starts with the client's circumstances, not with a product.

Lesson 1, Why suitability matters, teaches this. See the outline

Question 2 of 3

Your client's profile was last updated three years ago. What do you do before recommending anything?

 

Circumstances change. A suitability check needs a current picture of the client.

Lesson 3, Testing suitability, teaches this. See the outline

Question 3 of 3

A product is heavily promoted this quarter. What decides whether you recommend it to a client?

 

Promotion has no bearing on suitability. Each recommendation must fit the client.

Lesson 4, Grey areas, teaches this. See the outline
