Zywave Financial Solutions Division Renames Itself Advicent Solutions
(PRWEB) December 02, 2013 -- In conjunction with the recently closed sale of its Insurance Solutions Division, Zywave's Financial Solutions Division is being renamed as Advicent Solutions ("Advicent") effective immediately. The new name clearly indicates the company's exclusive focus on the financial advice and planning solutions business. Vista Equity Partners ("Vista"), a technology-focused private equity firm, retains ownership of Advicent and will continue to offer its value-added support and resources to the Advicent team.
Advicent President Kimberly Capelle commented, "We are excited to embark on the next phase of our future growth. Our customers should know that our executive team and the entire Zywave Financial Solutions team, from top to bottom, are moving forward with Advicent. More importantly, our customers will now benefit from an exclusive focus on the financial advice and planning marketplace."
Since its acquisition by Vista in 2011, Advicent has introduced dozens of advancements to its core NaviPlan and Profiles product lines and unified both under its NaviPro Financial Planning Suite. It also released a groundbreaking marketing and communications tool, Advisor Briefcase.
According to Mike Winters, Senior Vice President of Sales, "It has been a monumental year. We have established our suite of products as the standard of excellence for financial planning in North America and have recently added numerous notable financial firms to our distinguished network of customers. And 2014 will bring even more advancements to collaborative planning, consumer access, and coordinated advice and communication. We are at the beginning of a new era of financial planning, and we intend to lead the way."
