North launches client app
North, provider of wrap investment platforms, has launched a client app, making it easier for clients to stay connected to their investments.
Available on Apple and Android devices, the app would enable North clients to keep track of their super, pension and investment accounts, monitor investment performance and check transaction statements and beneficiaries.
AMP director of platforms, Edwina Maloney, said: “Providing a great technology experience helps North clients stay connected with their investments and facilitates stronger engagement with their adviser.
“We’re working to add further capability to the app, including features such as digital consent, and functionality for clients to change their address and bank details.
“Building this core functionality into the client app will simplify the administrative process for advisers and clients, allowing more time for the delivery of strategic advice.
“This investment in North’s tech capability complements the continuing expansion of North’s investment menu, its growing managed portfolio range and competitively low fees.
“We know this combination of functionality, quality investment choice and low fees are what advisers and their clients most value in a wrap platform.”
