Major bank National Australia Bank (NAB) has been announced as the principal partner of The Adviser’s Better Business Summit for 2021.
This year’s Better Business Summit is themed “Better Connected”.
The Better Business Summit & Awards 2021 will once again be run in partnership with principal partner NAB.
Nicole Triandos, acting general manager, NAB broker distribution, commented on 20 April: “With the first Better Business Summit kicking off exactly one month today, NAB is again proud to be principal partner of this important event series.
“As the bank behind brokers and BDMs, NAB invests heavily in strategic training and education initiatives to constantly raise the bar and the professionalism of our industry, all in support of good customer outcomes.
“2021 is shaping up to be an important year for all of us. With close to 60 per cent of customers choosing to use mortgage brokers, there is a real opportunity to further demonstrate the strength and value of brokers as trusted advisers to their customers.
“The Better Business Summit events are a fantastic opportunity to reconnect and feel inspired about the role we can all play on the road to recovery and growth.
“I look forward to seeing you all there!”
