Looking For This? Symphony 2.0 Introduces Faster, More Intuitive Search Functions

The ability to find information and the answer to any question at an instant is standard today. We’re accustomed to finding everything we want to know with one click, or a question to our virtual assistant. So how do we take that expectation and translate this to Symphony?

Gamestop was a Magma Moment, But Financial Ops Teams Got Burned…

What happened over the past few weeks was what I term a “magma moment” in the financial markets. Reddit. WallStreetBets. GameStop. And more.

It all meant longer hours, more pressure and duress added to existing stresses. Exacerbated by disconnected and tedious manual processes in both client lifecycle and transaction lifecycle management. We just saw market fundamentals disrupted in real-time. But…there is a parallel (and more positive) disruption required to transform client onboarding and post transaction processes. It needs to happen. And soon. Think: augmented operations.

A Look at Client Lifecycle Management

At Innovate 2020, our clients reflected on their learnings and focus areas during the pandemic. The similarity between messaging and priorities stood out, with three themes emerging: (1) more connected workflows and analytics for straight-through-processing; (2) real-time connectivity to contacts and networks for answers and information; (3) increased collaboration and transparency across teams.
