Good news! As discussed in our last Water Cooler session, the Advisor Centre’s managing client banking information section has been enhanced with a new automated character recognition tool.

Below is a summary of the main changes.

With the end of the year fast approaching, we would like to provide you with some important reminders to help you prepare for this period.
