что здесь означает слово exempt?

[Nayton]

Собственно говоря...Подскажите, плиз, никак в толк не возьму..

In some places, individual employees within a licensed & Registered Investment Advisor firm such as a: brokerage, bank or insurance company may be exempt if providing complementary financial planning services in relation to their existing products and services.

Спасибо!

Consider: освобождены от основных обязанностей.
У exempt много значений, нужен более широкий контекст.

[Alex16]

может быть и от уплаты налогов. Контекст!

[Nayton]

скорее всего речь про налоги, хотя..
на всякий случай привожу весь абзац:

In some places, individual employees within a licensed & Registered Investment Advisor firm such as a: brokerage, bank or insurance company may be exempt if providing complementary financial planning services in relation to their existing products and services. Moreover, financial planners should be extremely careful in providing estate planning or taxation advise for a fee, as these fields are highly regulated by government agencies that control the practice of lawyers and Certified Public Accountants (CPAs). The term "Investment Advisor" also includes any person who uses the title "financial planner" and who, for compensation, engages in the business, whether principally or as part of another business, of advising others, either directly or through publications or writings, as to the value of securities or as to the advisability of investing in, purchasing or selling securities, or who, for compensation and as part of a regular business, publishes analyses or reports concerning securities.

Мой вариант явно не годится. Если про налоги, то смущает следующее предложение. А что было перед этим?

[Nayton]

а перед этим был вот такой абзац:

Being 'licenced' to practice financial planning is not the same as merely having a professional 'qualification' in financial planning. A person may be professionally qualified in financial planning, but without a licence required by the law, he cannot practice the trade in that country or call himself a financial planner there. As of now, there are quite a bit of qualifications related to financial planning that can be found in world. The most prestigious financial planning designations are those which are not just of advanced standing and well-known, but are also recognised by the relevant authorities for licensing purpose. The RFP,CFP, ChFC, RFC, FFSI, CWM TM, MFP TM, or PFS, FPS designations are advanced financial planning or closely related qualifications that are independently offered and regulated by esteemed financial industry organizations but not all are recognised for licensing purpose.

Другое дело, Nayton! Они будут лишены лицензии.

[delta]

Точнее, они не имеют права на получение лицензии на финансовое планирование - примерно так.

[ОксанаС.]

[В некоторых странах] отдельные работники таких [лицензированных и имеющих статус Зарегистрированного Инвестиционного Консультанта] фирм, как брокерские, банковские или страховые компании, могут быть освобождены от требования о получении лицензии, если они бесплатно оказывают услуги по финансовому планированию в отношении существующих продуктов и услуг своих компаний.

Оксана, а откуда слово "бесплатно" взялось? Они оказывают дополнительные услуги (complementary services), а о бесплатных, вроде, речи нет.
