Challenge
Financial advisors (FAs) at wealth management firms and private banks rely on research for devising investment strategies for high net worth individuals. With limited time at hand, FAs constantly struggle to analyze an exhaustive list of reports. While many wealth managers have deployed different types of financial advisory software to facilitate process automation and mobility, very few solutions enabled FAs to formulate customized investment strategies by leveraging Big Data and analytics.

TCS solution
TCS’ Wealth Advisory solution’s recommendation engine enables a financial advisor to make better informed investments for clients by factoring in a given client’s investment policy statement constraints, the financial advisor’s preferences, the client’s existing portfolio, historic transactions and other key deterministic, stochastic, and judgmental factors.

Our tablet-based solution visualizes the capabilities of Big Data and analytics engine by providing recommendations to the financial advisor through different views. This feature enables the financial advisor to easily review a short list of personalized recommendations for both discretionary and non-discretionary portfolios.
