Curved Image

We’re continuing to enhance your planning experience with updates that bring greater consistency, clarity, and efficiency to every client interaction. From applying a unified Monte Carlo trial percentage across reports and presentations to launching the new Presentation View in Decision Center and refreshing 2025 tax assumptions, these improvements are designed to streamline your workflow and elevate client engagement. Plus, upcoming enhancements to the Client Portal will further modernize how you connect and collaborate with clients.

Monte Carlo Single Trial Projections Added to Reports

To make your presentations more consistent across experiences, now you can apply a single Monte Carlo trial percentage to your printable reports and presentations. This feature has been available in Decision Center, and now you can use the same logic in your print presentations.

This update is part of our ongoing effort to provide a smoother, more consistent experience for you and your clients.

Client Portal Improvements and Discontinuations for an Enhanced Experience

Our product strategy focuses on continuously investing in the Client Portal to benefit advisors and their clients. We’re enhancing capabilities, building new features, and removing outdated technology to deliver modern, efficient tools that improve client engagement and help grow your business.

What’s Changing

  • Goals Sunsetting |The Client Portal Goals tab will be disabled and replaced with our award-winning My Plan, representing clients’ goals and more. This enhancement is designed to align with the way advisors are modernizing the delivery of financial plans and the way in which clients engage with them.
  • Pro tip: Don’t want to wait to enhance your client experience? My Plan is available for you to turn on for your clients today. Craft and seamlessly share personalized plans directly to the Client Portal to increase collaboration and engagement with your clients. Learn more here.
  • Explore Mode and Workshops Sunsetting | On July 15, we will be sunsetting both Explore Mode and Workshops. In their current form, they have seen limited engagement from users. Data suggests that users are seeking different ways to interact with their finances, and we’re committed to providing solutions that better meet those expectations. An enhanced offering will be available for those who purchased the Premium Client Portal soon.
  • The handful of clients who have Explore Mode and Workshops enabled will be notified via an in-app banner message in the coming weeks, providing them with a heads-up before their experience changes. See screenshot below for reference.

We look forward to continuing to be your partners in achieving strong client engagement. We believe in the value of the client experience and are committed to the continuous improvement of your Client Portal, including the June release of Presentation View. If you’re interested in enhancing your client’s experience, learn more about the Premium Client Portal here.

#1 Market Leader in Aggregation Tools

A Look Back at Q1 2025

As the leader of aggregation tools in the market, we are committed to helping you unlock opportunities to grow your business by providing you a holistic view of your clients’ data to enhance personalized financial planning. We kicked off 2025 with a continued focus on delivering stable, secure, and seamless data aggregation experiences—helping you stay connected so you can focus on what matters most: your clients.

Recent Additions:

In Q1, we added 95 new sources, including top-requested institutions like:

  • Computershare
  • Southside
  • Goldman Sachs Custody Solutions
  • ADP

We also upgraded 30 existing connections to improve performance and reliability, including:

  • American Express
  • Albridge
  • Citi – Retail Credit
  • Vanguard
  • Merrill
  • Merrill Benefit Online

Recent Product Updates:

In February, our top-notch customer service team made it even easier and more efficient to get help, so you can get back to what you do best, we introduced the Connections Support Assistant—an automated response tool built to help reduce the time needed to resolve connection interruptions. It’s now a step in the existing Report a Problem workflow. Read the full release notes ›

In 2024, we aggregated over 40 million accounts—90% via API or bulk file—and introduced key updates to make data aggregation smarter and more seamless. From easier connection discovery and client transfers to 300+ new high-value connections and a new standalone offering, we’ve laid the groundwork for even more innovation ahead.

Aggregation Update: Federal Student Loans

Due to the Stop Student Debt Relief Scams Act (STOP Act), financial data for federal student loans can no longer be accessed by third parties. To comply with this regulation, eMoney will discontinue access to federal student loan financial data effective Friday, April 18, 2025.

All data previously aggregated or manually added to the system will remain, but it will no longer be updated automatically. You and your clients can continue to manually input the details of federal student loan accounts to ensure data from these sources is included in your clients’ full financial picture.

Note: This change only impacts federal student loan providers—private student loans are not affected.

We remain committed to delivering compliant, secure, and reliable data aggregation experiences that help you stay connected to what matters most.

Schwab Integration Enhancements

Released April 22

The Schwab integration unlocks faster, more efficient document sharing by enabling seamless access to Schwab statements directly within the Client Vault. This enhancement streamlines your workflow by eliminating the need for manual downloads and uploads to share these documents in eMoney.
