Weekly review

Monday, January 20th 2003, 7:08AM

It' still pretty quiet in the financial services industry at present.

The biggest event this week is the Reserve Bank's Official Cash Rate review which is being announced on Wednesday morning.

As we report in the Mortgage News section of the site there is a strong consensus amongst economists that no changes will be made.

The most contentious issue is what will happen later in the year. Here there is a view that rates may fall. Find out more here.

The start of the year is always a time of crystal ball gazing and trying to predict what will happen over the next 12 months.

As reported last week AMP Henderson has developed a view that property and private equity are suitable places to be. We will provide more detail on the reasons behind their thinking later this week.

If you are a financial planner and insurance adviser and are wanting to build a website this year talk to us at Good Returns. We have developed a package which provides websites specifically tailored to your business.

The sites, which are cost-effective, have been built in conjunction with one of New Zealand's leading web design companies.

For more information either call 0800-345675 or email sites@goodreturns.co.nz

Likewise if you are a planner or adviser and are preparing to study at Massey University this year you can buy your text books through either Good Returns or the FPIA website (www.fpia.org.nz). Most books are available for immediate delivery and our prices are better than Bennetts.

One thing which did happen last week is that Tower continued to work on sorting out its problems across the Tasman. To see what's happening visit Insurance News.
