In Brief: Web Site to Assist Manulife’s Advisers

TORONTO — F/A Connect, a Web site for financial advisers, has agreed to provide insurance and wealth-management content for Manulife Financial, a Canadian life insurer.

Manulife’s Canadian advisers can use f/A Connect to get access to a range of financial products, professional development services, information, calculators, and other tools. The advisers can also use the site to provide clients with updated product information, send informational brochures and other materials directly to their clients, and enroll in professional development courses.

The insurer, which manages $84.3 billion of funds, said the agreement complements its Repsource extranet network for advisers, and extends the company’s use of the Internet as a communication and distribution resource.
