Bill.com + Financial Advisors (IFAs): Faster Bank Import
Independent financial advisors reviewing client finances need to analyse bank statements to understand spending patterns, income, and savings capacity. If you use Bill.com for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Financial Advisors (IFAs) Using Bill.com
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV formatted for direct import into Bill.com. Convert client bank statements to Excel for quick financial analysis, cashflow modelling, and wealth planning presentations.
The Financial Advisors (IFAs) + Bill.com Workflow
IFAs request bank statements during fact-find meetings to assess client income, expenditure patterns, existing commitments, and savings capacity. They analyse statements to build cashflow models, identify surplus income for investment, and support suitability reports. Statements are also reviewed during annual client reviews to track changes in financial circumstances.
Key terms you'll encounter: fact-find, suitability report, attitude to risk, capacity for loss.
