Leading life insurer AIA Australia has re-launched its practice development centre of excellence, the Business Growth Hub, to help financial advisers grow their business and build deeper client relationships.
Business Growth Hub is an online resource centre offering access to a variety of advice efficiency tools as well as providing access to a handpicked panel of expert consultants in marketing, client engagement, human resources, cash flow management and technical training.
Financial advisers are increasingly seeking best-of-breed practice management services from their business partners to maintain and grow revenue, foster deeper client relationships and reduce risk and create efficiencies through technology and online tools.
AIA Australia Chief Retail Insurance Officer, Pina Sciarrone, said AIA Australia was committed to being the dominant business partner to financial advisers focused on the crucial business of risk management.
“The business of running a professional financial advisory practice is more competitive than ever before. Practice principals who want to create a more sustainable future business model are looking for value-added support and services,” said Ms Sciarrone.
“While we don’t intend to tell any financial adviser how to run their business we have a valuable role to play in bringing expertise and resources to an adviser’s business.
“Our highly professional client development managers get asked everyday by our financial adviser clients their opinions on business planning and management issues. It’s a natural partnership for AIA Australia to bring its expertise and knowledge to advisers by offering access at significant pricing advantage to respected business partners, such as Business Health, SRS Coaching and Consulting, MoneySoft and Norman Waterhouse estate planning.”
