Many advisers began to worry about whether they were adequately equipped to deal with the changes and how they could ensure that they were operating in a compliant manner.

His commitment to the industry has been recognised with back=to=back BDM of the Year awards in 2024 and 2025.

Sarah Johnston remains KAN’s general manager, keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly, while Benjamin Krebs and Chuck Slogrove are still hands-on as directors, with Slogrove continuing to drive product improvements to make trail the smartest, most effective tool in an adviser’s business toolkit.
