Novus Capital Ltd can provide suitably qualified advisers and Advisory companies the framework to act under the auspices of our Australian Financial Services Licence No. 238 168.

Novus has built up a comprehensive set of policies, guidelines and procedures that will help people and companies that are authorised by Novus, ensure that they are working in compliance with current legislation and regulation.

The essence of Novus’s AFSL service offering is to allow advisers to focus their attention on serving their clients and not be bogged down with copious regulation and administration.

Joining Novus as an Adviser

If you have strong communications skills, and have an existing client base which you are eager to expand, then we are keen to discuss what we can offer you in the way of a rewarding career within the innovative and expanding company which is Novus Capital.

Whether you are a Private Client Adviser looking after the securities trading interests of clients or a Corporate Adviser looking for infrastructure and licensee support, then Novus is interested in hearing from you.

Novus has excellent trading platforms, infrastructure and research to assist its advisers to reach their true potential. As a dedicated financial services professional, you will be aware of your duties and responsibilities under the financial services regime and will want to strive to meet the standards sought by Novus and the regulator.

Types of Authorised Representative of Novus Capital Ltd

There are two types of Adviser in the Novus program:

  • Individually, as an Authorised Representative (AR); or
  • as a Corporate Authorised Representative (CAR)

The distinction between the two is that as an AR, you would join Novus directly as an individual and trade under the Novus branding. A Corporate Authorised Representative, (CAR) applies where you have a company with your own branding. Your company would become a Corporate Authorised Representative, and the main active individuals within your company, would also be authorised as ARs. A CAR may work within the Novus Offices and infrastructure, of have their own external offices.
