Welcome to the new and improved Good Returns

Sunday, September 3rd 2000, 11:56AM

In the three years Good Returns has been running it has become the leading source of personal finance news on the 'net in New Zealand.

In keeping with our aim of being a one-stop-shop for news and information we are pleased to introduce the addition of several new features, with more to come.

WHAT'S NEW?

It's now even easier to find your way around Good Returns through the introduction of a right hand column on the news pages which lets you see more of the stories in the site, and an improved and expanded navigation bar on the left.

New buttons on the left include; Mortgage Rates, Insurance News, Financial Planner of the Year, IPAC Fund Manager of the Year, Online Forums and Find-An-Adviser.

The links to the main editorial pages are included in the Navigation bar which runs across the top of each page.

Also, on some of the pages you'll see an orange box appear above the buttons. These allow you to sort the contents of the page by categories. For instance in the Diary section you can sort the contents by Conferences, Roadshows and Courses.
