TAL launches office hub for advisers
Life insurer, TAL, has launched a Risk Office Hub for its advisers, which will allow advisers to access meeting rooms for client meetings in five capital cities.
The meeting rooms are located in offices around the country, including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, and Perth, and are equipped with conference phones, web-ex cameras, and LCD screen facilities.
The initiative was adviser-driven, and generated from the talscommitment.com.au site, general manager, retail distribution, Niall McConville said.
"There are many reasons why an adviser might need a professional office to conduct a client meeting, such as travelling interstate to visit a client or where a coffee shop isn't the best place for very personal and private conversations," he said.
To book a meeting room, advisers would need to visit the TAL adviser centre and complete the online booking form seven days before the adviser meeting.
