What is the RE1 exam?
RE1 is the Regulatory Examination for Key Individuals, required under the FAIS Act for anyone overseeing an FSP in South Africa. It's 80 multiple-choice questions, 2.5 hours, closed book — and you need 66% to pass.
Most people who fail RE1 don't fail because they don't understand what a Key Individual is responsible for — they fail because they walked in having never sat a realistic mock exam under real time pressure.
