The unit broadens students' understanding of the investor's mind and client's behaviour when obtaining financial advice. In this unit, the roles of behavioural biases, ethical principles, and legislative requirements in building a long-term client-advisor relationship are discussed and the professional skills and knowledge required for the development of financial strategies that meet the client's best interest are practiced. This unit further provides an understanding of the fundamental financial techniques that assist in the evaluation of financial products such as shares and bonds.
