Darelle Jenkins to manage AdviserNETgain

Darelle Jenkins has been appointed as national manager, AdviserNETgain.

Jenkins joins BT Financial Group from COIN Software, where she was managing director for more than two years. Before that Darelle held a number of senior management roles in the financial services industry, including MLC, Colonial First State and the Commonwealth Bank.

“Darelle joins us with a proven track record in advice technology,” said head of dealer groups and licensee select at BT Financial Group, Neil Younger.

“The future of advice technology is a critical success factor in addressing some of the challenges financial advisers face in preparing for the changing regulatory landscape.”

Jenkins’ role will be central to the strategic development of BT Financial Group’s advice technology tool AdviserNETgain. AdviserNETgain was ranked number one in the 2006, 2007 and 2008 Investment Trends ‘hybrid’ category and recently scored second highest in overall satisfaction among planners using it as their main planning software application in the Investment Trends 2009 Planner Technology report.

“Advice technology plays an important role in helping advisers to articulate the value of advice they deliver,” Jenkins said.

“An efficient tool such as AdviserNETgain not only adds to an adviser’s value proposition but also gives their clients confidence they are using one of the very best tools available in the market.”
