Envestnet and Schwab Enhance Tamarac CRM for Advisors

Envestnet, the wealth tech giant, has deepened its partnership with Schwab by enhancing its Tamarac CRM platform with a set of new, highly requested features aimed at supporting advisors managing Schwab accounts. Announced just before Schwab’s annual IMPACT event, these updates are designed to improve efficiency and optimize workflows. Advisors are now able to submit service requests directly through Tamarac CRM, ensuring a more secure and streamlined process for transferring forms and documents. The enhancements also include an alert system to keep advisors informed of account updates, money movements, and client transactions in real-time.

One of the standout features is the single sign-on integration, allowing advisors to access Schwab’s Move Money Tool directly from Tamarac CRM. This integration supports internal transfers, ACH transactions, and wire requests, making the entire process more seamless. Additionally, it enables clients to approve these actions via their devices, further simplifying operations. According to Molly Weiss, group president of the wealth management platform at Envestnet, the primary goal of these enhancements is to prioritize advisors’ needs, allowing them to dedicate more time and energy to client relationships rather than administrative tasks.

The collaborative effort between Envestnet and Schwab, highlighted by Alison Dooher, head of Schwab Digital Advisor Solutions, underscores the enduring relationship between the two companies. This partnership aims to enhance the advisor-client experience through technology-driven solutions. The upgrades are part of a series of improvements and integrations that Envestnet has rolled out since its take-private acquisition by Reverence Capital and other investors back in July.

With over $6.5 trillion in platform assets and a network of more than 111,000 advisors, Envestnet collaborates with some of the largest financial institutions and RIAs in the industry. This latest move reflects broader trends in the wealth management industry toward deeper integration and enhanced technological support. By focusing on innovation and advisor support, Envestnet and Schwab aim to strategically position their platforms in a competitive market, ultimately improving the service delivery for advisors and their clients.
