Data Aggregation

A recent survey of Consumer Finances found that the median-affluent and mass-affluent households consolidate less than half (42%) of their financial assets and liabilities with one financial institution. How can you advise your clients, implement their financial plans and guide them toward their financial goals if you only know half of the details? With Albridge Data Aggregation you have access to your clients' held-away assets.

Albridge Data Aggregation vastly expands the data source landscape to nearly 10,000 financial websites. Benefits of data aggregation include:

  • View excess cash balances in your clients' held-away banking accounts
  • Determine your clients' true asset allocations including their held-away assets
