Compliance and Fiduciary Monitoring
Proactive Monitoring — From the Front Office to the Back
Investment advisors are often challenged with adhering to hundreds of strict compliance regulations. Yet some of the most challenging and costly are related to managed accounts. Mandates such as conducting and documenting annual account reviews, as well as evaluating new accounts shortly after they are opened, impact every bank that manages discretionary accounts.
Redefine Compliance Monitoring at your firm.
Features of Our Compliance Solution:
InvestEdge also features screens and reports for monitoring the review status of each account. Advisors and compliance personnel can see which accounts have been reviewed, their status (accepted or rejected), and associated comments. Additionally, they can view which accounts are in the review queue, as well as those due for review but not submitted. This enables firms to prioritize, and provides the opportunity to conduct reviews more evenly throughout the year.
