Despite being one of the biggest (and oldest platforms) in the market, FundsNetwork CEO Jackie Boylan says she doesn’t want the Fidelity platform to be seen as a behemoth.

In this episode, she talks NMA news editor Jack Gilbert through her efforts to make the company more innovative and nimble with technology, improve its partnerships and do more integration with its biggest adviser users.

‘While we are deemed to be a bigger player and one of the long-standing ones, I don’t want to be pigeon-holed as the big old platform. We want to reinvent ourselves,' she says.
