Netwealth selects Morningstar to provide software tools


Morningstar Australasia has been selected to provide software and research tools to financial advisers using Netwealth investment and superannuation platforms.
Under the agreement, advisers will have access to Morningstar's proprietary FundScreener tool and fund profiles through the Netwealth website.
Selected advisers will also be able to use the Adviser Research Centre, a web-based solution aimed specifically at dealer groups and advisers.
"Following an industry-wide tender, we found the coverage and quality of Morningstar's research to be first-class, and the technology underpinning the delivery excellent," Netwealth executive director Matt Heine said.
