Grammar

We don’t mean to sound condescending, but based on our experience after checking thousands of files, the most common suitability report errors are typing, spelling and grammatical.

The suitability report is a cornerstone of your advice process and promotes your brand and standards of professionalism. A suitability report that is poorly written, unchecked and not proof read is likely to include errors and hence does not promote your brand in a favourable light.

Using a tool like ATEB Suitability will eliminate to a greater degree such errors by storing standardised text centrally.  You can also use a browser with a built in spell checker to check your spelling as you go.

Suitability reports – silver bullet, or not?

Compliance, Suitability , , , , , , ,

If you ask most advice firms which part of the advice process consumes the most time, most will reply: “Suitability Reports”.
