Review
coordinator
Review packs prepared before the meeting, clients booked into your diary on a rolling schedule, and evidence of the service filed — because ongoing fees require ongoing service, delivered and documented.
Ongoing service is charged monthly and delivered when there is time
A practice charging ongoing fees has committed to ongoing service. Reviews are the delivery of that commitment, and they are also the thing that slips when the practice is busy writing new advice.
That is both a client outcome problem and a compliance one — ongoing fee arrangements require the service to be delivered and evidenced, not intended.
A dedicated review coordinator runs it as a rolling programme: clients booked ahead, packs prepared before the meeting, and the evidence filed afterwards.
What they run
- Review calendar — A rolling schedule of every client's review date, worked ahead so bookings happen early rather than at the anniversary.
- Client booking — Clients contacted and booked into your adviser's diary, with reschedules chased rather than dropped.
- Review pack preparation — Current positions, performance, contributions, insurance status and changes since last review assembled before the meeting.
- Provider information — Updated statements and policy information requested and chased ahead of the meeting.
- Agenda preparation — A draft agenda based on what has changed and what was flagged last time.
- Post-meeting administration — Actions recorded, implementation tasks created, and the record of advice or file note prepared for your adviser.
- Service evidence — Evidence of the ongoing service delivered, filed against the client — what a licensee or auditor will ask for.
- Review reporting — Which reviews are booked, overdue or unbooked, weekly, so the gap is visible before it becomes a finding.
The advice line
Preparation, booking and evidence travel. The review conversation itself is regulated advice.
- The review meetingConducting a review is providing advice and requires your authorised adviser.
- Portfolio commentaryNo commentary on performance or markets to a client, however casual.
- Recommendations arisingAnything arising from a review is the adviser's recommendation to make.
- Fee discussionsOngoing fee conversations and consent renewals stay with the adviser.
