GBST Advisor™ is an interactive client management system that automates and centralises the client management process.
In the majority of broking offices, retail advisers often rely on a number of disparate applications to support their work. These include market information, order management, CRM and portfolio management systems. GBST Advisor™ consolidates the functions and information contained in these applications within a single integrated desktop application.
GBST Advisor™ is fully integrated with GBST’s securities trading and settlement engine, Shares™, and provides real time access via a GUI front end to the books and records, client and transaction information held in Shares™. Advisor’s™ comprehensive client management tools, coupled with direct order entry capabilities, enable users to maximise the volume of trades and generate new revenue streams in an increasingly competitive market.
Real time integration with CMT and margin lending interfaces provide access to accurate, real time balance and transaction information to improve efficiencies and reduce trading and settlement risk.
GBST Advisor™ supports compliance requirements, including FSRA requirements. The extensive client profiling tools in Advisor™ supports the ‘Know Your Client’ requirements and also provides the ability to create, save and distribute ‘Statements of Advice’ (SOA) and save investment advice against clients and orders.
