As I have mentioned on previous threads, jobs as financial advisors are generally commission only. Equity release and long term care plans (such as in the UK) do not exist in Dubai.

There are a number of financial advisory companies, although only a handful are, in my opinion, any good.

I have to query why after 12 years your husband has just a basic qualification. Not trying to be unkind, but I would have expected rather more qualifications and a wider product knowledge after that length of time.

If he is interests in dealing with mortgages only his only option would be to work for a bank or one of the handful of mortgage brokers, although broking is generally commission only. Another alternative is to seek a role with an offshore insurance company.

Financial servies in the UAE is in its infancy. Many of us are trying to raise standards, but it is a job for someone who can obtain their own clients, knows what they are doing and is self-motivated.
