Ascend

Supporting you and your business

Building a successful business isn't easy. It takes long hours, hard work and the drive to be the best.

Ascend is our tiered adviser support programme, designed to provide simple, practical and effective support for advisers who partner with us to help improve customer outcomes.

Ascend provides more support services in order to improve your business. Whether you're just starting out or already at the top of your game, Ascend offers a flexible framework, allowing you to focus on what's most important to you.

Let's talk

Ascend is designed to support every adviser, every day.

You can access your monthly performance results and programme collateral via the dedicated website myascend.co.nz

We'll let you know when your latest results are available and if you have any questions you can contact us at any time via ascend@sovereign.co.nz

We may decide to use qualification credits you earn towards your level of participation in a 'new look' Ascend programme, launched earlier than the start of 2020 - we will inform you of any changes.

Be sure to talk to your BDM or BDC about how to leverage Ascend to take you, your business and your clients to new heights.
