Cambridge Conference 2010 - From Financial Capability to CFEB: the road ahead
This year's Cambridge event was our first as CFEB and it proved to be an enormous success. Hosted by Liz Barclay, the renowned journalist, the event started with a welcome address from Tony Hobman and ran for one and half days.
The keynote address was given by Mark Hoban, Financial Secretary to the Treasury in which he outlined the new National Financial Advice Service and the annual family financial health check both of which CFEB have been given the responsibility for rolling out next spring.
