The partnership has proven very significant considering that Australian organizations now aim to boost their growth through technology. SuiteBox chief executive Ian Dunbar stressed the huge impact of technology in the financial services industry as it allows transactions to be fast-tracked and done in real time.
“Software has enabled virtual meetings, which eliminate the need for in-person meetings, which can be time-consuming and costly for people to attend,” Dunbar said.
SuiteBox makes use of technology to create a digital workplace that provides a secure virtual meeting room between financial advisers and clients. Aside from allowing online meetings involving up to three people, it also allows users to share screens and documents and even sign documents online.
“Something as simple as the digital signing of a document can bring forward a financial transaction by days or weeks. Software has enabled virtual meetings, which eliminate the need for in-person meetings, which can be time-consuming and costly for people to attend. Instead, with a digital meeting room, businesses can be more productive and move ahead with financial transactions at any point in time, anywhere in the world,” Dunbar said.
