It notes that currently, less than 10% of IFAs utilize tools like websites, email newsletters, blogs, podcasts or YouTube. However, the internet now plays a major role in peoples' daily lives and how they research and purchase financial products. The document advocates that IFAs should establish an online presence through websites, social media, and by interacting directly with clients online, in order to remain visible and build their reputation in the digital age.
