Objectway and vdk bank announced that they agreed to implement two components of Objectway's WealthTech Suite: Portfolio Manager will provide portfolio management, branch-based advisory and execution-only capabilities; whilst Investor Portal will enable web apps for end-clients for self-directed investment management at a later stage. vdk bank is a premier Belgian-based retail bank, with more than 140.000 clients and 81 branches across the country. Their mission is 'vdk, your bank, strong in advice, for the most fair return', striving for a fair balance between return and peace of mind. vdk bank adopted the Objectway solutions in order to provide its clients with an advanced and in-depth advice service, whilst helping them manage their investments even more efficiently. Advisors will deliver customised investment strategies, by setting risk profiles, goals and proactive alerts. End-clients will be able to invest in a self-service mode or digitally collaborate with their advisor on-line through the introduction of the self-directed investment functionalities into the existing vdk banking web and mobile applications.
