Catalyst is a highly configurable digital platform providing real-time access to investor information with the ability to carry out online instructions. Catalyst seamlessly integrates into GBST’s back-office administration platform (Composer), lowering operational costs, removing re-keying and automating data transfer.

Select from a comprehensive set of pre-integrated user journeys available by persona type to maximise self-service capabilities. Catalyst provides onboarding journeys across all wrapper types and supports servicing transactions such as top up, withdraw, trade, portfolio model management and account maintenance. Journeys are available for advisers, paraplanners and both advised and D2C investors. 

A range of out of the box third-party integrations support single and regular cash contributions, portfolio analysis, real-time content management, address lookup and AML validations. 

Catalyst is built on a responsive framework, ensuring users can access information and transact on accounts either in the office, at home or on the go via desktop, tablet or mobile. Through design, development and deployment, Catalyst has been tested with targeted user groups consisting of advisers and investors, with refinements made accordingly.
