IOOF has launched an online financial adviser hub, Investment Central, to support clients with their investments.
Investment Central gives advisers access to education, portfolio tools, and market insights.
IOOF head of specialist solutions, Danny Dalton, said: “The new online hub showcases our multi-manager investment solutions in a simplified and user-friendly way and facilitates access to knowledge as well as practical tools to help advisers in their day-to-day management of the requirements of their clients".
Advisers can learn about new investment fundamentals and concepts through the hub’s knowledge centre, use a profiler tool to help clients ascertain their investor profile and risk appetite, and look at data to help build and compare portfolios.
