Take the hard work out of meeting your latest compliance obligations
Updata portfolio solutions are used by a wide range of firms including accountants, fund managers, independent financial advisors, solicitors, stockbrokers and taxation specialists. More and more clients have been voicing their concerns about the new provisions for Conduct of Business for firms regulated by the Financial Services Authority. It appears that most systems providers are not taking the new regime seriously. Updata has been working with its clients in the field to build a fully compliant portfolio management solution. Updata Portfolio Administrator handles all aspects of COB compliance removing all the labour intensive aspects of meeting your firm’s obligations.
