MoneyGuidePro’s newest feature encourages client action

The new tool is designed to help advisors in “more deeply engaging their clients around plan actions," the Powhatan, Va.-based firm said in a release.

MoneyGuidePro, the web-based financial planning software, has been enhanced by the addition of Executive Summary, an interactive tool that allows advisors to automate the review of ongoing actions related to a financial plan. 

The new tool is designed to help advisors in “more deeply engaging their clients around plan actions. Investors will benefit from a consolidated view of their specific next steps in the financial planning process,” the Powhatan, Va.-based firm said in a release.

Clients can select action items from a list of pre-determined tasks, such as:

  • Decreasing cash exposure
  • Increasing 401(k) contribution
  • Purchasing additional insurance
  • Refinancing a mortgage
  • Updating an estate plan

Action items can have a status and completion date based on a household view of the plan. Investors can access Executive Summary in a view-only format via their MoneyGuidePro Snapshot, allowing them to see what items they must complete as well as their status. Executive Summary can be accessed through any device with a browser.

MoneyGuidePro is the flagship product of PIEtech, Inc.
