What is AssetLink?
With AssetLink,
Ø you approve any investment
decisions,
Ø your adviser provides expert
investment and strategy advice, and
Ø AssetLink takes care of the
administration.

ASSETLINK is a transaction and portfolio administration
service providing access to a wide range of investments with a single
point of reporting.
ASSETLINK allows you and your adviser to electronically
administer your listed shares, listed unit trusts and managed funds, and
consolidate these with your other investments. This makes the
investment process flexible and easy to administer. Your adviser can
provide advice on your total financial position, and you can have the
opportunity to reap the rewards of your investments.
ASSETLINK is suitable for both new and experienced
investors who want to consolidate their reporting, retain control and
diversify their investments.
For those who want to be relieved of the burden of managing and
administering all their investments with various institutions, registries
and stockbrokers, AssetLink offers a unique management and reporting
system in one place. All the chores of portfolio management
are handled by AssetLink and your adviser.
For the experienced investor who likes to keep a close watch on their
investments, ASSETLINK
offers detailed portfolio reporting available through your adviser, or you
can access your portfolio information using AssetLink's VOICE
RESPONSE SERVICE. This enables you and your adviser
to spend more time on evaluation and decision making, and less time on
administration. |
