95% first-time

Fact Find Completeness

A structured digital fact find with conditional logic and validation ensures comprehensive information capture, reducing the need for follow-up information requests.

100% verified before advice

AUSTRAC Compliance

Automated AML/KYC workflows ensure client identity is verified and documented before any personal advice is provided, satisfying AUSTRAC obligations.

The Challenge

Common customer onboarding challenges facing financial services businesses.

The fact find process takes weeks because paper forms are filled in during meetings, mailed back for missing information, and manually entered into XPLAN.

AML/KYC identification is handled ad hoc, with some clients verified at the first meeting and others not until the SOA is ready, creating compliance exposure.

Authority forms for superannuation funds and insurance providers require wet signatures and postal submission, adding weeks to the data gathering process.

Advisers spend significant time in the first strategy meeting gathering basic financial information that should have been collected beforehand.

Implementation

How we implement customer onboarding for your financial services business.

Client Engagement and Compliance Setup

New clients receive a digital Financial Services Guide, privacy policy, and engagement agreement for electronic signature. AML/KYC identification and verification procedures are initiated with AUSTRAC-compliant workflows.

✓ Tools: Make, DocuSign, XPLAN

Fact Find and Data Collection

A comprehensive fact find captures financial position, goals, risk tolerance, insurance needs, superannuation details, and estate planning status. Existing product schedules are requested for analysis.

✓ Tools: Make, Typeform, XPLAN

Authority and Access Configuration

Authorities to access superannuation funds, insurance policies, and tax records are executed digitally. Product provider logins are linked to the practice platform for ongoing monitoring.

✓ Tools: Make, DocuSign, XPLAN

Strategy Meeting Preparation

The adviser receives a pre-meeting brief summarising the client financial position, identified gaps, and preliminary strategy options. The client receives a preparation guide explaining what to expect from the strategy session.

✓ Tools: Make, XPLAN, Google Calendar
