SunGard Launches WealthStation 3.0 for End-to-End Wealth Management Capabilities












Salt Lake City, UT (Vocus) June 10, 2008

SunGard today unveiled enhancements to its WealthStation wealth management platform to help firms attract, service and grow client relationships. WealthStation 3.0 includes: a dashboard for viewing client and account activities; intuitive workflows across each step of the wealth management continuum to help improve productivity; data sharing across applications to help streamline processes; and the integration of trading, rebalancing and house holding capabilities.

“In our wealth management and online technology research, improved usability is the most frequent enhancement requested by financial advisors. By integrating wealth management with trading, a better mix of graphical elements and text, and a focus on workflow, the newest version of WealthStation indicates that SunGard is listening,” said Adam Honoré, senior analyst at Aite Group.

WealthStation provides enterprise and advisor tool sets across each phase of the wealth management lifecycle to help wealth management firms assist their advisors with client service. As competition for assets increase, and investors become more sophisticated and expect higher service levels, effectively servicing clients has become a critical differentiator. WealthStation’s tools for client acquisition, proposal generation, trading, rebalancing and ongoing services are an important competitive asset to wealth management firms seeking to grow their businesses through enhanced client service.

Developed using SunGard’s Common Services Architecture (CSA), WealthStation can be deployed to support a single process such as financial planning or as an end-to-end solution. WealthStation’s modules include client management, financial planning, investment management, asset allocation, data aggregation, trading and rebalancing, reporting, client access and compliance.

“WealthStation’s new capabilities help advisors spend more time with clients and become more effective by bringing multiple processes together into one seamless environment,” said Blaine Maxfield, chief operating officer of SunGard’s wealth management business. “Offering both client- and account-centric perspectives to servicing clients, WealthStation helps advisors improve productivity, provides holistic views of information, robust reporting and enhanced data sharing between modules as well as back-office systems.”

Creating Realistic Wealth at Any Age: Wealth Virtues Author, James Ward, Featured on The Balancing Act

Creating Realistic Wealth at Any Age: Wealth Virtues Author, James Ward, Featured on The Balancing Act














Port Republic, MD (PRWEB) March 2, 2011

Wealth Virtues author, James Ward, was featured on The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television with host Danielle Knox to discuss how the wisdom of Benjamin Franklin can help us in these modern times to eliminate debt and create wealth.

In discussing the rationale behind the book, James Ward commented, “With my three girls, I want them to succeed like I feel we have with our financial future. We want to make sure that we are not a burden on them, and use the wisdom from Franklin’s virtues to help empower them to be debt-free, and to be successful in whatever they want to pursue.” It is a goal that Ward wanted readers of Wealth Virtues to consider for themselves. James also discusses with Danielle how the creation of wealth is simplistic, and therefore, he wrote Wealth Virtues with simplicity in mind.

James Ward describes how many people mistakenly perceive ‘wealth’ as the amount of money required for one to live like a king. This perception may inhibit many from even perusing a realistic and easily attainable measure of wealth. In his book, Wealth Virtues, Ward redefines wealth as simply the goal of ‘acquiring more money than you spend, and to save more money than you owe.’ To help readers understand why these virtues matter, James Ward provides knowledge and insight on the impact of health, creativity, non-linear thinking, and investing to allow anyone to achieve his or her goals, as well as to become wealthy as defined within Wealth Virtues.

Wealth Virtues is a book that will allow readers to define and achieve their own wealth regardless of their current age or income level. Whether a person measures wealth in monetary terms or as a measure of the quality and meaning of their life, Wealth Virtues will change the way people live if they are willing to follow the easy path set forth by James Ward, with help from one of America’s preeminent Founding Fathers.

About the Author:

James Ward is wealthy. Not “John D. Rockefeller wealthy,” but rather, has more money flowing in than flowing out. He is or has been a successful computer scientist, Coast Guardsman, Army officer, analyst, musician, graphic designer, skier, manager for a defense contractor, business owner, and a writer. He is also a successful investor, but lives well within his means. As the owner of Poor Richard Web Press, he helps businesses, non-profits, and individuals succeed with their Internet marketing goals. He also helps other writers and authors with free online marketing tools at BiblioScribe.com, and is a contributor to First Book, an organization that provides new books to children in need. Although his savings and investments continue to grow from the continual practice of Dr. Benjamin Franklin’s Thirteen Virtues while following the Cycle of Positive Wealth©, he realizes that his only true and most valuable treasure is his family and friends.
