linkedFA Teams Up with NASDAQ to Add Adviser Resources
linkedFA, a social networking site for financial professionals, has partnered with NASDAQ.com to offer resources on its site.
Reported by
Ellie Behling
linkedFA said the partnership gives linkedFA members direct access to NASDAQ’s Financial Advisor Center (www.nasdaq.com/advisor), which offers resources tailored to the professional interests of financial planners. The resources include news, commentary, educational tools, job listings, adviser calculators, and more. Conversely, users of the NASDAQ Advisor Center can directly access linkedFA to use social media.
linkedFA, which launched earlier this year, said it is the first social networking site compliant with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) (see “Social Networking Site for Advisers Says It’s FINRA-Compliant” and “Advisers Meet Compliance’s Hurdles to Using Social Media”).
