Ascend Financial Services Limited's disclosed product panel
41 providers · as of 2026-09-04This is Ascend Financial Services Limited's firm-wide panel, not Giorma Lupo Maria Allemano's personal scope. Being on a FAP's product panel does not mean every adviser at that firm advises on every listed provider — individual advisers are often scoped to a subset depending on their licensing and specialty. Ask the adviser directly what they can advise on. If a provider is not listed here, their firm's disclosure statement does not name it — that is not the same as saying Giorma Lupo Maria Allemano cannot advise on it.

What "product panel" means
Under New Zealand's Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, every Financial Advice Provider (FAP) must publish a Public Disclosure Statement under section 431 covering — among other things — the product providers they are appointed to distribute. FinanceAdvisersNZ mirrors these PDSes and parses the product-panel section into structured data.
Being on a FAP's product panel does not mean every adviser at that FAP advises on every listed provider — individual advisers may be scoped to a subset of the panel depending on their licensing and specialty. The panel describes the FAP's firm-wide product reach, not any individual adviser's specific scope of advice.
Methodology + limits
- Source: Mirror of Ascend Financial Services Limited's Public Disclosure Statement filed under FMC Act 2013 s431.
- Extraction: Product-provider names are extracted from PDS markdown by Claude (LLM-extracted, confidence tier C). For original wording, refer to the FAP's own publication via the FSPR register entry.
- Name normalisation: We collapse known name variants (e.g. "ASB" vs "ASB Bank") via a hand-curated alias list. Variants we don't yet know about render as separate chips — treat counts as approximate.
- Freshness: PDS data is re-checked periodically. See the FAP profile page for the version date.
- Coverage: FinanceAdvisersNZ currently has PDS data on file for ~107 of ~2,444 NZ FAPs (~4.5%). Coverage grows as we ingest more PDSes.
