Free live webcast: Financial user experience

Meeting B2B objectives through user experience design: a case study at PFPC (member of The PNC Financial Services Group)

Thursday, May 15th, 2008 — View date/time for your location

— (Requires a PC...)

Free case study available now. "Meeting B2B objectives through user experience design" – learn how HFI collaborated with PFPC to overhaul AdvisorCentral's site architecture and design, based on user research and usability best practices.

User experience design is critical to meet your online business objectives. Providing an engaging user experience is a key differentiator to get customers to adopt your technology and services.

In this webcast, you'll learn how user experience design has become a strategic, mission-critical practice at PFPC, a leading provider of processing, technology, and business solutions for the investment industry. Jerome and Eileen will describe the redesign of PFPC's AdvisorCentral, a core business-building Web portal for financial advisors and broker-dealers that provides client account information, research services, and tools. AdvisorCentral is also a major marketing tool and source of trend data for participating mutual fund companies.

You'll learn why:

  • PFPC invested in enhancing the user experience of AdvisorCentral to improve its market perception, competitive position, and user adoption
  • quick, tactical user experience improvements led to a long-term, strategic user experience program
  • the next generation of Web portals can become the "financial supermarkets" first predicted at the dawn of the Internet era

NOTE: You don't have to call in for audio. The audio will come through your computer speakers.
