The network’s annual results revealed that pre-tax profits were up at £0.7m from £0.5m the year before, while turnover dipped slightly to £44.9m from £46.6m in 2014.
Average turnover per adviser was boosted by 30% over three years to total £57,000.
Jane Cross, CEO of Personal Touch (pictured), said the group’s results reflected its ongoing investment in technology and innovation.
“I am delighted that our continuing focus on technology and innovation has supported us in achieving these strong results. Access to unique tools and streamlined processes has enabled an ever increasing number of customers to receive advice from Personal Touch advisers,” she said.
Mortgage Solutions revealed earlier this month that the network was set to launch a directly authorised proposition for brokers, after piloting the offering throughout 2016.
The network has also created a number of technology tools for its advisers, including Virtual PA, which prompts brokers with suggestions for new business leads in their existing client bank.
Cross added: “During 2015, we invested heavily in our technology solution Toolbox, which is owned and developed by Personal Touch.
“Developments included a number of market-leading integrations such as Solution Builder, Mortgage Source and Electronic Identity Verification. The foundations were also paved for 2016 integrations with Dynamic Planner and our exclusive sales and relationship tool Virtual PA. We continue to give our members what I believe is one of the most precious commodities available; the gift of time.”
