General functionality and flexibility

The financial situation step of the Mifid-II advice flow comes with some flexibility:

  • Fields that you want to collect information about, on all sections is configurable. This means that you can tailor the financial situation to fit your needs.
  • Possible to implement compliance-by-design rules by setting fields required. When doing this, the platform will prevent the advisor from generating an advice and documentation before all required fields in the financial situation is filled
  • It is possible to define which fields from the asset side on person and company version of the financial situation that should be considered as part of the feature "Amount for advice".

Amount for advice

Amount for advice is a functionality that allows the advisor to define how much of the asset side in the financial situation that should be brought in to the rest of the advice flow. When turned on, the amount for advice table is added towards the end of the financial situation page:
