/24-7PressRelease/ - BROOKFIELD, WI, February 14, 2008 - As many financial firms are finding, offering Minimum Continuing Legal Education (MCLE) credits to attorneys helps them increase their number of high net worth clients.
Currently, 43 states require attorney's licensed in their state to obtain MCLE credits on an annual or biannual basis. Offering credits to individuals affected by the requirement can open the door to a number of financial opportunities.
"It's really an untapped market," says Alan Krenke, President and CEO of Quest CE. "By offering MCLE credits for presentations, wholesalers are able to develop relationships with attorneys who advise high net worth clients."
Developing this relationship with attorneys, and familiarizing them with the financial products offered by their firm, can increase sales of insurance and investment products. When advising a high net worth client, the topic of investments often arises. While the attorney cannot make any financial suggestions, they can direct them to a financial advisor offering the wholesalers products.
"Often times, a wholesaler and the manager of a financial advisory branch will coordinate the meetings, bringing together attorneys, certified public accountants, and financial advisors," says Krenke. "This creates a network of local professionals better suited to understand and cater to the needs of their clients."
