NEW YORK, Sept. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- To better engage investors, empower advisors and accelerate digital transformation in the wealth management industry, global Fintech leader Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE:BR) launched Wealth InFocus, a next-gen wealth communications experience designed on a foundation of investor research, with Cetera Financial Group (Cetera) as the first client. This new approach toward wealth communications provides a better digital experience according to 78% of Cetera's surveyed pilot clients, and 88% of respondents would like to receive a Wealth InFocus digital communication on an ongoing basis.
"Wealth InFocus is a cutting-edge communications experience that is already improving client engagement, enhancing investor connections with advisors and driving digital transformation, which makes Cetera even more unique in a crowded, legacy landscape," said Tom Gooley COO of Cetera. "We are excited to be the first firm to go live with this innovative communications experience and are empowering our clients and their financial well-being with the information that is most important to them while delivering solutions to our advisors that reinforce the value they bring to their clients. This underscores Cetera's deep commitment to providing our financial professionals with simple and impactful solutions, so they have more time to grow their practices, enjoy their families and serve their clients."
Wealth InFocus is designed to take an investor-centric approach by consolidating, aggregating and presenting the most important information across various account and regulatory communications, including statements, confirms, proxies and prospectuses. Replacing traditional static communications, Wealth InFocus creates a new holistic experience, making it easier for investors to consume and better understand account details while providing advisors with new opportunities to reinforce their value and communicate directly with their clients. Investors can quickly and securely contact an advisor, view key account information, gain insights, and review action items and events across channels, including email, text, microsites and print, according to their preferences.
"Broadridge continues to pioneer a suite of digital capabilities, such as Wealth InFocus, to make investor communications more intuitive, convenient and understandable while strengthening relationships among investors, advisors and wealth management firms across digital and physical channels," said Doug DeSchutter, President of Broadridge Customer Communications. "Given Broadridge's investment and expertise in wealth management, customer and regulatory communications, and digital transformation, we are uniquely positioned to provide Cetera and the wealth management industry with the data and technology to transform communication experiences for investors while significantly reducing costs and increasing efficiencies for firms."
