This post is part of our live coverage of FinovateFall 2013.
Next, Place2Give showcased how its tool can help advisors provide charitable giving guidance to their clients:
“The Advisor Toolbox uses proprietary algorithms to help financial and legal advisors provide additional fee value by reducing the research time taken to help clients achieve their charitable giving strategies.Our FinovateFall demo includes the client profiling tool, charity search and client typology matching, charity research, and the day-to-day management of a client’s charitable giving (including the scheduling of disbursements and tax receipts). The Toolbox can be incorporated into a client’s existing CRM or wealth advisory software.”
