Kingswood Holdings Limited, the international, fully integrated wealth and investment management group, today announces the launch of ‘Kingswood Go’, a new online portal for clients, in partnership with technology designed by moneyinfo, a leading wealthtech firm that specialises in client portals and mobile apps for the wealth management industry.

Available via desktop and mobile app, Kingswood Go will allow clients to:

• Access and track their investments, pensions and savings effortlessly, online and in one place.
• Hold all of their financial information from other providers safely and securely, such as insurance products, property, and bank accounts as well as other assets.
• Securely communicate with their adviser whenever, and wherever it suits them, with encrypted WhatsApp style messaging.
• Share and digitally sign important documents which will be automatically stored encrypted in the cloud, eliminating unnecessary paper copies and physical trips to the adviser’s office.
• Create an in-case-of-emergency folder where all important paperwork and insurances are kept in one place, for trouble-free access if the unexpected happens.

For Kingswood, this enables the firm to:

• Create a single client view for advisers.
• Enhance loyalty amongst its clients.
• Enable effective workflow management.
• Increase communication to clients by pushing ‘relevant content’ to their mobile devices.
• Streamline the core business processes.

Lucy Whitehead, Chief Client Officer at Kingswood, commented: “We’re delighted to launch Kingswood Go, a product generated from comprehensive feedback gathered from our clients, who are now busier than ever and eager to have easy access to their accounts online and benefit from highly tailored communications with their adviser.
