Today’s investors have the freedom to switch investment managers with relative ease, causing intense competition for their business and increasing the cost of attracting new clients. As a result, investment houses are keenly focused on retaining and growing existing accounts, causing them to reevaluate and improve the online information services they deliver to their clients.

At the same time, companies must improve the productivity of their investment advisors by giving them the online tools and data they need to serve more clients more effectively.

Growing Accounts with Online ServicesToday’s financial services firms compete fiercely for their share of high–net-worth investors, including the emerging ranks of wealthy baby boomers and young professionals. To grow and prosper, the firms must meet the needs of these demanding investors with superior online information and personalized services.

For years, investment houses have offered online portals that provide clients with basic access to statements, transaction and history reports and portfolio performance summaries. But as younger, busier and savvier investors join the investment community in ever-increasing numbers, financial services firms must review the adequacy of their online reporting and analysis tools.

Exceeding Client ExpectationsTo be a leader in the online financial services world, firms must anticipate client demands and deliver powerful products and services that deliver value to their investors every day. To do so, firms must upgrade the accessibility, quality, timeliness, personalization, interactive analysis and security of their online client portals.

To give the new generation of sophisticated investors the visibility into their investments they demand, financial services firms must deliver a variety of report types:• Multi-accountperformancedashboards• Achoiceofportfolioandtradehistoryreports• Currentandhistoricaltaxreports• Performancereportsbenchmarkedagainstpersonalizedinvestmentandlifegoals

In addition to more report types, investors are asking for more functionality, including:• Instantaccesstoreal-timeaccountstatus• Achoiceofhowandwhenreportsaredelivered• Customizablereportswithuser-specifiedsettings• Controloverthelookandfeelofdisplayeddata• Abilitytodownloadinformationintoavarietyofformatsandtoolsforfurtheranalysis
