Skandia, part of Old Mutual Wealth, has launched a new website for financial advisors named the “informer” offering technical support and financial planning information, replacing Skandia’s previous publication of the same name.

The new site is also available as a mobile app and offers access to technical commentary from financial experts, up-to date- fund statistics and an industry event calendar. Available to UK and offshore advisors, the site allows advisors to personalise their own fund lists and highlight the context most relevant to their business and clients.

The information available on the site includes the specialist tax and financial planning support that was previously housed within Skandia’s “Knowledge Direct” website.

“The online library is packed full of technical documents covering a wide range of financial planning areas. By visiting this free website, advisors and paraplanners can quickly access the technical information most relevant to them when advising or addressing client planning needs. It is also collaborative– we will host content from advisors and we will closely track what’s most popular, in order to guide future content ideas,” said Michelle Andrews, marketing director at Skandia.

Skandia is part of Old Mutual Wealth, a retail investment business that oversees £80.3 billion ($134.0 billion) in customer investments as of June 2014.
