I couldn t agree more. To prosper, financial advisors must be skilled at leveraging technology to deliver value-added, personalized advice to clients through a trusted relationship. Our goal is to elevate advice to a new level through a collaborative platform modeled on choice and empowerment. The Financial Consultants TGA is tightly coupled with our customizable online service, Merrill Lynch Online. We encourage our clients to get online.
Informed clients ask better questions.
Clients are empowered. And we intend to improve and multiply these conversations and communications. We are adding more TGA functionality to Merrill Lynch Online so clients and Financial Consultants can communicate with the same information and tools at their fingertips. We also recently introduced our Global Investor Network that allows clients to join Merrill Lynch programs through live video and audio feed. And our Morning Call will be made available through this network, giving clients direct daily access to the best investment analysis in the world.
