Over the past six years, OnTrack has developed digital financial planning solutions for providers of financial advice, engagement and education. Our mission is to be a leader in delivering innovative digital platform solutions that empower financial planners and financial service providers to meet their client’s wealth planning goals while providing an exceptional user experience. Our solution is cost-effective and places our client's brand and strategy at the forefront of a fully integrated client journey facilitating the delivery from one to many. In recent years, financial advice providers have been orphaning mass market clients from retirement advice because increased regulations make the provision of advice unprofitable. Providers are struggling to deliver good advice under an increasing regulatory oversight burden alongside unsustainable cost structures. But this is where OnTrack can help. Our solution includes a digital, automated retirement advice platform consisting of a Know Your Client (KYC) and Financial Needs Analysis (FNA) process along with goals, motivators and Client Journey Lifecycle analysis to build better plans. A sophisticated, best-in-class calculation engine provides probability-based analysis linked to a behaviourally nuanced communication approach that provides just-in-time analysis and education to ensure a better understanding of the benefits of the plan they are building. The end client gains access to a user-friendly and intuitive retirement planning application that enables them to dynamically plan, adapt and monitor their retirement to ensure they remain on track to achieving their retirement goals according to their unique circumstances, needs and goals. Financial planners also gain the ability to service these clients and provide appropriate advice at scale. Please visit our website for more information www.ontrack.com.sg Show less
