Understand – We partnered with Merril Lynch as a launch partner.
We interviewed their SME's and wealth advisors throughout the project so that we can better understand their needs and test concepts.
Solution
The final solution consisted of personalized dashboards, feed via Merril Lynches proprietary system. It allowed the advisors to have a seamless solution between their normal workflow with the power of NewsPlus.
