This comes two years after successfully implementing Prospero for the Trust department of UnionBank.<\/p>\n<p>FINARTIS will provide the bank\u2019s Wealth department with a highly automated platform integrating all front- to-back processes on multiple asset classes. The solution will allow UnionBank to provide tailored services to their high net worth (HNW) clients with advanced risk monitoring of their portfolios. Clients will be given anytime-anywhere digital access to their portfolios via digital wealth management portal and mobile application.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith numerous technological advancements and tighter regulations setting the scene of the wealth management industry today, local banks are compelled to not only enhance their level and speed of service but also to have solid risk mitigation processes in place,\u201d said Kimberly Espiritu, Regional Sales Manager at FINARTIS. \u201cForeign banks expanding their local footprint across wealth management and private banking also increases the competition in this dynamic landscape. UnionBank can continue relying on our smart technology to manage complex financial operations in the most cost-effective and efficient way that also benefits from a unique combination of Swiss Wealth Management expertise and Philippine local presence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe chose to partner with FINARTIS again after a careful selection process for our Private Bankers in terms of mobility, user experience, extensiveness and caliber of service. Since our Trust Banking Group was already using Prospero 365, we found it a natural extension for our Private Banking Business,\u201d said Jose Emmanuel U. Hilado, CFO, Treasurer and Senior Executive Vice President at UnionBank. \u201cThis project with FINARTIS is in line with UnionBank\u2019s digital transformation efforts to achieve operational excellence by automating compliance rules and processing transactions in true straight-through-process while still allowing flexibility to tailor-fit our services for our HNW clients.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFINARTIS is delighted to work with UnionBank. A quick time to market is very important to the bank and thanks to our ready-to-use wealth management solution, we can achieve a successful go-live in line with the bank\u2019s objectives. FINARTIS can leverage both its global delivery capabilities and local team to ensure they reach this objective. We are confident that Prospero will offer the bank a significant competitive advantage,\u201d said Jean-Luc Freymond, Chairman and CEO at FINARTIS.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>About Union Bank of the Philippines &#8211; <u><a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionbankph.com\/\">www.unionbankph.com<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n<p>UnionBank stands out for its strategy, execution and performance.
