The challenge
BpH Wealth Management were originally using Iress’ Adviser Office integration with Microsoft Word to produce their reports. Whilst it was easy to amend the data and was highly configurable, the system and reports weren’t very aesthetically pleasing and had limited valuation integrations. The biggest problem was the fact that it only produced simple growth returns rather than their desired money weighted returns.
The solution
BpH Wealth management felt that Fastrak was the reporting tool of choice due to its unique ability to offer money weighted returns, numerous platform transactional data integrations and high-quality, configurable reports.
“It is important to have accurate transaction level data for reporting purposes. It is essential as we can’t produce the valuation reports we want to send to clients on a money weight basis but also from a MiFID2 perspective.”

The impact
Since using Fastrak in their business, BpH Wealth Management has been able to save considerable time in producing client reports compared to the Adviser Office, Word based service.
Client feedback to the new report formats has also been positive, in part due to the better flow and aesthetics of the reports.
Darren also said “I would recommend Fastrak to others… We are now saving between 20-50% of time producing valuation reports.”
