Distribution Technology was founded to solve one problem: to make advised distribution profitable. Providing advised sales is too often painful, the process takes too long, is fraught with regulatory complexity and as a result too expensive and risky to deliver profitably. In an industry which is seeing ever greater competition and declining margins this is not sustainable.
Against this backdrop consumers are also becoming more demanding, ‘taught’ by their experiences in other industries, from retail to travel, they are looking for consistently high quality service experiences as well as products. They often want them at a time and via channels that suit them, be it face-to-face, over the phone or online, day or night.
Distribution Technology helps over 25 of the largest banks, life & pension companies, investment platforms and distributors and over 25,000 advisers successfully tackle these issues. We provide turnkey applications and an extensible Platform which supports the regulated planning and sales process from start to finish across multiple channels. Our Platform is unique in its combination of comprehensive support for this process with powerful analytics which provide insight into the customer’s situation, what actions they should take and how they should manage their finances to best effect.
Our applications allow clients to get up and running quickly, minimising ‘time to benefit’ and maximising return on investment. They represent best of breed and support ease of integration with other systems for straight-through processing. All are available via our On Demand Software as a Service offering, as well as via On Premises deployment where control of the IT estate is paramount. The Platform’s extensive Application Programming Interface can be used to integrate and extend solutions and for clients and partners to take control of their own development.
