WealthElements is a web-based planning solution designed to
streamline and optimize advisor workflows at every step of the life
and wealth discussion. WealthElements uses a set of advanced sales,
compliance and engagement toolsets that integrate seamlessly with a
firm's existing platforms to develop a personalized plan. The
Client Portal module is a mobile-friendly, investor-facing tool
that leverages robo-technology and allows clients to enter
information - like net worth, cashflow and financial objectives -
and engage an advisor when they're ready. Together, WealthElements
and the Client Portal help deliver a secure online financial needs
analysis experience to investors.
"Our vision is to become our clients' most valued
partner in their financial well-being," said Tony Gottlieb, Program Director, Wealth
Management Strategy at The Co-operators. "Being the industry leader
in client engagement is a priority for us, and our clients tell us
they want choice in how they interact with The Co-operators.
Equisoft's WealthElements suite and Client Portal allow us to
deliver on this request – financial advisors can offer holistic
life and wealth solutions that are scaled to the client's needs,
and the client can choose to interact with us in-person, by phone
or online. We're excited to be the first organization to offer the
Client Portal in Canada."
"We're extremely proud of this achievement for a marquee
client," said Jonathan Georges, Vice
President, Wealth Management Solutions at Equisoft. "Our
solution is currently used by thousands of advisors worldwide, but
it's the first official release of our Client Portal module. This
is a major milestone for us as we continue to expand our product
offering with the objective of supporting our clients in their
efforts to remain competitive in an increasingly digital
world".
