- Identity of the attendees.
- Date and time of the meeting.
- Location of the meeting.
- Initiator of the meeting.
- Agenda item summary, followed by minutes relating to that item, next steps recorded, with an execution date and the person responsible for each step.
- AOB.
- Next meeting date set.
- Note: if appropriate: remember to add relevant information about the client order, including the price, volume, type of order and when it shall be transmitted or executed to meet MiFID II and SM&CR regulatory requirements.
How the service works for meeting minutes and file notes
You dictate the notes from any phone and then hang up. We type, proofread and return them by email. It’s very straightforward and saves hours – hours that would be far more productively invested in client engagement and revenue-driving activity.
IFA file notes are date and time-stamped, so they can be used as evidence, should the need arise, to protect you. For instance, they can serve as contemporaneous file notes, so as close as you can get to actually recording a live meeting.
Here is a little more detail about us because it’s nice to know your outsourced in-house team.
