That statement is false.

Explanation:

It's the other way around.

The licensing and regulation of financial advisers is actually a way for government to protect customers from unqualified 'financial firms' that might screw them over.

Without any licensing or regulation, any people could pretend to be a financial advisers and trick people to put their money in their firms.

In order to obtain a license as a financial advisers, you need to pass the test called Investment Company and Variable Contracts Products Representative exam,

Obtaining this license means that you're knowledgeable enough in finances and has the credibility to give safe/correct advice for the customers.
