Broker Daily Uncut went mobile for the first time as the team recorded from the summit floor.
Host and editor Jack Campbell was joined by Broker Daily partnerships manager Lizzie Whitlock and Cloudstaff’s director of property service APAC, Paul Findlay.
Big energy and friendly faces were the key takeaways from the event, as both Whitlock and Findlay praised the time spent chatting with brokers.
Findlay also delved into the interest in outsourcing shown by brokers at the summit.
With the cost of running a business growing and the responsibilities of brokers constantly evolving, outsourcing is an attractive option to provide some much-needed support to swamped teams.
The second segment of the podcast saw Dr Lisa Bridgett, director and principal broker at Stellar Finance Group, and Candice Joseph, director and principal broker at Entourage, discuss challenges and opportunities in the market.
Bridgett, a seasoned podcast guest, outlined the challenges of keeping up with ever-changing regulations.
Especially in the midst of a federal election, the compliance brokers must adhere to can switch in an instant.
Working across residential, commercial, and asset finance, Bridgett said that regulation can vary across each form of lending and the struggle to keep up can prove tiring.
Joseph agreed that compliance is proving difficult for the modern broker.
Both guests recognised the opportunity for technology to pull brokers through these challenges.
Joseph and Bridgett are leveraging AI and automation to reduce the burden of day-to-day tasks.
Giving teams more time for client-facing duties, tech can be an effective enabler of growth while juggling the complexities of the modern broking space.
The full episode will be available on Monday, 7 April at brokerdaily.au.
