SALT LAKE CITY, May 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Financial services firms continue to look for ways to help advisors manage the best interest process quickly and easily with the assistance of technology. Based on customer demand, CapitalRock, the makers of RightBridge systems, and PIEtech, the makers of MoneyGuidePro, have integrated the RightBRIDGE Product Profiler with MoneyGuidePro to provide a seamless process for financial planning through specific product selection. John Hyde, President of CapitalRock explains that, “The current compliance environment continues to increase the requirements for advisors. They have the same number of hours in the day, and the same production expectations, but are being required to add substantial documentation and record keeping in to the mix.” Kevin Hughes, EVP of Sales at PIEtech added, “Many firms see the best interest requirement as an opportunity to better serve their clients. As part of this process, advisors are expanding the use of financial planning to better understand the client’s overall situation and needs. We’ve long said that financial planning helps advisors forge stronger, more trusting and longer lasting relationships with clients.”
From the advisor’s standpoint, this new level of understanding and trust generated by financial planning leads to higher value advice and more opportunity to provide services or products that help the client better prepare for their future.
The combination of MoneyGuidePro and RightBridge streamlines the best interest process for advisors. Each system has the ability to populate the other when the workflow dictates, and planning concepts, which may translate to a certain account type or product, can be passed from MoneyGuidePro to the RightBridge system for product selection to validate that the client’s best interests are being met. With CapitalRock and PIEtech’s systems integrated, advisors are able to document the seamless process.
