BT launches website to keep financial advisers in the loop

The portal - known as FRANK (Financial Reform, Advice, News and Knowledge) - provides news on the Future of Financial Advice reforms, Stronger Super and taxation.
According to BT, the website also provides some insight into how the group is responding to the reforms and provides tips and tools so advisers can meet the new requirements.
"FRANK will be the central communications hub for financial advisers and dealer groups on reform, providing legislative updates, information about product and platform changes, thought leadership articles and webinars," BT Financial general manager adviser distribution, superannuation and investments Chris Freeman said.
