Braintree, MA – U.S. Wealth Management, LLC, a firm specializing in providing wealth management programs through professional firm affiliates, has taken a leading edge in the industry in choosing the Laserfiche electronic document management solution as part of a straight-through processing (STP) system designed to streamline operations, reduce expenses and increase profitability for the firm and its professionals.

John P. Napolitano, CFP®, PFS, MST, CEO of U.S. Wealth Management, said this state-of-the-art technology positions the firm as a leader among the smaller to mid-sized wealth management broker-dealers. Immediate benefits to affiliates include a secure platform, conversion from paper to electronic documents, electronic signatures, and greater ease with which to transact business.

“At U.S. Wealth Management, we are investing in best-of-breed technology provided by industry-leading companies like Laserfiche in order to attract and retain top talent and equip them with the tools necessary for success in today’s marketplace,” Napolitano said. U.S. Wealth Management has approximately 46 registered representative affiliates and is undergoing expansion, Napolitano added.

The Laserfiche component of U.S. Wealth Management’s STP program involves the conversion of most of the firm’s and its affiliates’ paper files into secure electronic documents that staff can easily retrieve. Going forward, U.S. Wealth Management affiliates will also have the ability to directly enter electronic documents with electronic signatures provided by LaserApp® (www.laserapp.com), a partner of Laserfiche, as well as integrate its documents with a new contact management system.

Chris Wacker, senior vice president of Business Development at Laserfiche, said the STP program at U.S. Wealth Management is an example of an emerging trend in the financial services industry.

“U.S. Wealth Management is one of the first of the smaller, independent broker-dealer firms to make this financial commitment and recognize the huge benefits of an STP program that melds electronic signatures, contact management and electronic document management,” Wacker said.
