Five years ago Capital Analysts of New England started the process of becoming a “paperless” office and we have implemented a scanning and electronic storage system. Maintaining our investment files electronically serves two valuable purposes for our advisors:
- Files can be accessed remotely saving time when administrative personnel need to retrieve a file or find client information; and
- All investment files are stored offsite through an electronic back-up proving FINRA compliance as well as disaster recovery protection.
-
In short, our administrative services are all design to allow advisors to focus on their core business and to be as productive as possible.
