Description of No Monkey Business

Millions of people have accumulated investments on a scale that changes their needs for professional financial services. A shameful number have directly experienced abuse of trust in their dealings with the industry. Many more are discovering that the relationships and products they thought were safe and simple are actually highly complex and conceal risks they were never aware of. Its time to take personal responsibility. No Monkey Business is a kick in the pants for the industry and a wake-up call for individual investors. It shows you how to place money in the context of setting individual life goals - making investment personally relevant. It also counters tricks within the industry using a few essential principles, some helpful devices and a 'code of safe practice' that will transform the way individuals think about investment and the way they select and manage their relationships with the industry. The code makes sense of risk, defines how to select agents, products and services, and shows you what to pay and how to pay. No Monkey Business will educate investors, shed light on malpractice and ensure consumers have the ammunition and know-how to make the most of their investments.
