(January 9 – 12:45 ET) – Manulife Financial has signed an agreement with f/A Connect to provide a full complement of insurance and wealth-management content to Manulife’s Canadian advisors.

As a result of this agreement, advisors using the f/A Connect Web will have one-stop access to a full range of financial products, professional-development services, information and tools that allow them to satisfy clients’ diverse needs.

Manulife advisors will be able to:

  • provide clients with updated information on Manulife’s financial protection and wealth-management products;
  • forward informational brochures and other materials directly to their clients;
  • access a variety of calculators and tools; and
  • enroll in professional development courses.

“Manulife’s sponsorship will serve as an excellent online resource for the financial advisors and insurance professionals currently on f/A Connect. We are very excited about being able to provide this new industry standard of service to advisors,” says Tracey Wood, president and CEO of f/A Connect Inc.

Manulife says the agreement complements the company’s industry-leading extranet for advisors, called Repsource, and extends use of the Internet as a vital communication and distribution resource.

“As Canada’s largest life insurer, we are pleased to once again demonstrate our leadership within the industry,” said Trevor Matthews, executive vice president for Manulife’s Canadian operations. “Manulife is committed to helping Canadians make better financial decisions and we believe f/A Connect will help to reach that goal.”
