Transamerica’s network of advisors and agents plan to leverage Financial Services Cloud Einstein and Community Cloud to increase productivity and engage more holistically with clients

SAN FRANCISCO, March 28, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — Salesforce (NYSE: CRM), the world’s #1 CRM company and Intelligent Customer Success Platform, today announced Financial Services Cloud Einstein. Now, financial advisors can see a holistic view of each client’s household, visualize their client’s wealth ecosystem and leverage Einstein artificial intelligence to uncover new client opportunities.

Since its general availability in March 2016, Financial [Services Cloud](https://www.financedigest.com/oracle-beats-quarterly-revenue-estimates-on-cloud-services-demand.html "Oracle beats quarterly revenue estimates on cloud services demand") continues to see tremendous customer momentum, including Transamerica Financial Network (TFN), which is standardizing on the solution for advisors and agents. It [joins Perigon, Veterans First Mortgage and Wealth Enhancement Group](https://www.financedigest.com/italian-fashion-group-otb-joins-lvmh-led-blockchain-platform.html "Italian fashion group OTB joins LVMH-led blockchain platform"), who are using Financial Services Cloud to connect with clients in entirely new ways.

**Wealth Management Today**

Today’s investors are [sharing more data](https://www.financedigest.com/world-shares-rise-u-s-yield-curve-inverts-after-strong-jobs-data.html "World shares rise, U.S. yield curve inverts after strong jobs data") than ever before. However, only 18% of them [say their advisors are doing an excellent job](https://www.financedigest.com/amazon-will-not-cut-jobs-in-italy-unions-say-after-meeting.html "Amazon will not cut jobs in Italy, unions say after meeting") tailoring advice to them.1 This [personalization](https://www.financedigest.com/top-8-must-know-personal-finance-facts-for-2023.html "Top 8 Must-Know Personal Finance Facts for 2023") gap is driven in part by the inability of advisors to link together clients’ multiple accounts and relationships to gain a holistic view of their financial lives, as well as the relationships they value most. To meet the needs of today’s investors — and, at the same time, grow their books of business — financial advisors must stop managing data and relationships in silos, and not only start capitalizing on the wealth of information clients are providing them, but also taking advantage of emerging technologies like [artificial intelligence](https://www.financedigest.com/types-of-artificial-intelligence.html "artificial intelligence") that enable them to work smarter.

**Introducing Financial Services Cloud Einstein**

Last year, Salesforce launched Financial Services Cloud to provide advisors with the [next generation](https://www.financedigest.com/siya-kolisi-empowers-next-generation-with-red-bull-roots.html "Siya Kolisi empowers next generation with Red Bull Roots") of tools to build deeper 1-to-1 client relationships, supercharge productivity and deliver always-on client engagement. Today, Salesforce is adding new [innovations to the product](https://www.financedigest.com/the-microalgae-based-product-market-to-grow-based-on-instilled-innovation.html "The Microalgae Based Product Market To Grow Based On Instilled Innovation") that make every advisor smarter including:

Einstein Opportunity Insightsenable advisors to [boost productivity](https://www.financedigest.com/flexible-pay-can-boost-low-productivity-in-the-uk.html "Flexible pay can boost low productivity in the UK") and intelligently uncover opportunities based on clients’ sentiments, competitor mentions and overall engagement. For example, advisors can automatically see if a client mentions a competitor in an email thread and — when coupled with a decrease in communications — receive a reminder to reach out and nurture the relationship.
- **Relationship Builder** gives advisors the ability to easily connect information about clients and their households in one place, and edit their existing roles and activities. For example, an advisor can easily add when a client has taken on a new role such as becoming a [board member](https://www.financedigest.com/passendo-powers-up-with-raft-of-new-board-members.html "Passendo powers up with raft of new board members") at a company.
- **Relationship Groups** enable advisors to link clients to multiple households, trusts and business groups to ensure they have holistic views of wealth across all accounts and relationships. For example, advisors can track when their clients take on new responsibilities within other households, such as becoming a [power of attorney](https://www.financedigest.com/lasting-powers-of-attorney-your-clients-questions-answered.html "Lasting Powers of Attorney – your client’s questions answered") for an aging parent, and then proactively reach out with personalized advice.
- With **Relationship Map,** advisors can visualize a client’s family wealth ecosystem and financial accounts in a single snapshot and drill into [opportunities to deepen and grow their book of business](https://www.financedigest.com/title-homeopathic-veterinary-medicines-market-growing-at-a-cagr-of-5-business-and-future-opportunity-2031.html "Title: Homeopathic Veterinary Medicines Market Growing at a CAGR of ~5% | Business and Future Opportunity – 2031"). For instance, an advisor can discover that a client has become the beneficiary of a trust that is in [need of estate-planning services](https://www.financedigest.com/financial-services-need-a-digital-transformation.html "Financial services need a digital transformation").

**Comments on the News**

Clients’ financial circumstances and goals are constantly changing,” said Mat Johnson, [chief strategy officer](https://www.financedigest.com/the-new-role-of-the-cfo-the-de-facto-chief-growth-officer.html "The New Role of the CFO: The De Facto Chief Growth Officer"), Perigon. “To build and nurture strong relationships with them, it is crucial for our advisors to have a panoramic view not only of individual clients, but also of their households and extended networks. New Financial Services Cloud Einstein helps augment our advisors with AI, giving them the visibility and intelligence to provide clients with the best guidance based on all relevant factors.

“Relationships are complicated. Clients are often part of multiple households and [play multiple roles,”](https://www.financedigest.com/advisors-must-play-a-bigger-role-in-unlocking-scale-up-potential.html "Advisors must play a bigger role in unlocking scale up potential") said Rohit Mahna, SVP and GM of Financial Services, Salesforce. “Financial Services Cloud Einstein gives advisors a snapshot of a client’s entire wealth ecosystem, and empowers them to uncover new opportunities that exist within their client’s extended household or relationship groups.
