• A customizable Wealthscape homepage: Advisors can reconfigure the dashboard to display priority items that matter most for them and their businesses.

• Advanced digital service functionality: The availability of Virtual Assistant and Search helps users find what they need quickly and efficiently.
• A redesigned Wealthscape Investor experience: The Wealthscape Investor online experience now includes a streamlined login and security process, as well as a simplified, easy-to-use transaction history experience. The Wealthscape Investor mobile app was also redesigned to provide an enhanced user experience. The app now offers:
  • An intuitive, streamlined design for users to easily navigate and access important account information.
  • Enhanced access to account information, including account list, positions, balances, activity, trading, and mobile check deposit.
  • Advanced security features, including biometric login (face and fingerprint scan) and two-factor authentication.
