Ascentric, the financial wrap platform, has teamed up with Mik Cons, the former managing director and joint founder of 1st Software, to review how effectively IFA firms operate and how they use technology.

Through his Silent Partner consultancy practice, Mr Cons will work with Ascentric clients and prospects to review their technology and processes, with the purpose of getting a clear idea of how businesses are run and how to gain more efficiency from technology.

“Our aim is to work closely with our advisers to really understand the challenges facing them in their business and to explore how technology can help them spend more time with their clients and maintain a profitable business model,” Richard Goodall, Sales Director at Ascentric, said.
