Make Technology Decisions with Confidence

Our Approach

Technology tools enable business growth. But they aren’t standalone investments. They must work in conjunction with your firm’s value proposition. By combining our “we’ve walked in your shoes” experience with technology expertise and evidence gathered through real-world use cases, we create and execute a technology strategy that adheres to your business goals and helps differentiate you in the marketplace.  

Our Services

We engage with wealth management firms of all sizes and stages to help them design and build technology systems that streamline operations and drive growth.

Technology Strategy

Don’t make technology decisions in a vacuum. The best technology investments align with the firm’s value proposition and strategic goals and are backed by evidence that proves they’ll work in the real world. We’ll help you develop a long-term technology plan that will give your team the tools they need to increase productivity and enhance both advisor and client experience.

Example projects

Current State Assessment

Wealth Management Platform Planning

Vendor Selection

Technology Stack Modernization

Keeping up with the pace of technological change is daunting, but having an out-of-date tech stack holding you back is even worse. We’ll help you invest in the right updates to keep your legacy technology stack efficiently delivering insights and capabilities that enhance both the advisor and client experience.

Example projects

  • Accounting and Custody Modernization

  • Data Platform Modernization

  • Digital Client Experience Modernization

  • Client Reporting Modernization

  • CRM Implementation and Enhancement

Compliance Support

Working in a heavily regulated industry adds a layer of stress on wealth management leaders. You can’t get away from it, but we know how technology can streamline your compliance requirements.

Example projects

  • Reporting and Data Management (Regulatory filings such as 13F and ADV and compliance reviews and audits)

  • Compliance Tech Vendor Due Diligence and Tool Assessment

  • Technology Software Implementations and Tool Integration (Portfolio monitoring and risk management tools, communication capturing and archiving, and employee oversight and training)

  • Cybersecurity Review and Outsourced IT

Change Management Support

The hardest part of almost any project is the change. Project planning, user testing, and comprehensive communications can spell the difference between the successful adoption and utter failure of a technology integration. We assemble all the elements you need to ensure a smooth transition across the firm.

Example projects

  • Change Governance

  • Project Management

  • Internal Communications

Project Execution and Staff Augmentation

Many firms don’t have internal resources for the specific technology projects they need to complete. We can act as your CTO to manage technology, help you outsource key projects to the right experts, and even identify talented experts to add to all levels of your team.

Example projects

  • Fractional Operations/Outsourced Resources

  • Operations and Oversight Management

  • Staff Augmentation (F/T and Temporary) for Executive, Operations, and Administration Expert Placements

  • Staff Augmentation for Project Execution

Strategic Process and Risk Management Design

It’s in the best interests of every firm to establish a robust process library and implement a process governance routine to manage it. This investment protects the firm’s and its clients’ assets. We help you design and build governance structures that will ultimately support internal training and empower you to manage internal risk and assure the safety and soundness of your processes.

Example projects

  • Process and Workflow Design

  • Control Design and Testing

  • Issue Remediation

Merger & Acquisition (M&A) Support

Often overlooked, technology is a key factor in firm valuation; and a potential headache after the deal closes. We help both buyers and sellers evaluate technology ahead of a deal and we help firms marry their separate systems after a deal, saving you time and reducing stress throughout the process.

Example projects

  • Pre-deal Due Diligence

  • Post-deal Technology Integration

    Marketing and Brand Audit

Research

All our work is backed by research and real-world use cases, but sometimes our clients need to know something specific. That’s why we also conduct research on behalf of our clients. Whether you want to know what your clients think about working with you or broader industry trends, we can execute in-depth research studies to generate results that will support strategic decision making.

Example projects

  • Wealth Management Industry Insights and Benchmarks

  • Client Insights and Benchmarks

  • Advisor Feedback
