PurposeChapter 3 introduces you to the role of representatives and their fit andproper requirements. The FSP is responsible for the actions of representativesand as a key individual, you are responsible to oversee and manage therepresentatives including their fitness and propriety.3.1 THE ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF REPRESENTATIVESAS DEFINED IN THE FAIS ACT3.1.1 Definition of a representativeThe FAIS Act defines a „representative‟ as follows:Definition of representative"‟Representative‟ means any person, including a person employed ormandated by such first-mentioned person, who renders a financial service toa client for or on behalf of a financial services provider, in terms of conditionsof employment or any other mandate, but excludes a person renderingclerical, technical, administrative, legal, accounting or other service in asubsidiary or subordinate capacity, which service-a) does not require judgment on the part of the latter person; orb) does not lead a client to any specific transaction in respect of afinancial product in response to general enquiries;"The representative IS:a person who renders a financial service (advice or intermediaryservice)to a clienton behalf of a provider (licensed FSP)by virtue of an employment contract with the provider orby virtue of a mandate from the provider.58 © <strong>INSETA</strong> - Section 1 12a
The representative is NOT:a person who provides clerical, technical, administrative, legal,accounting or related service IF– that service requires no judgment; OR– does not specifically influence (lead) a client towards afinancial product transaction when the client merely enquiresabout the product or service.A very important component of the definition is the exercise of judgment,because the moment a person exercises judgment in relation to a client andproduct/service, the person comes under the ambit of "representative",thereby requiring the person to be fit and proper.3.1.2 Roles and responsibilities of representativesAs discussed above, once a person exercises judgement, and provides arecommendation, opinion or guidance in respect of a financial service to aclient regarding a (FAIS) financial product, that person is a representative.As the representative of an FSP, the representative either renders anintermediary service and/or gives advice to clients.As such, the representative does not act for himself, but for the FSP – even inthe case of a sole proprietor FSP – the whole business may consist of onlyone person, but the person fulfils various roles and in different legal andregulatory 'persona'.© <strong>INSETA</strong> - Section 1 12a 59
