Orion Announces Upgrades to Advisor Desktop

New Feature Lets Clients Access Advisor Video Commentary from Mobile Devices

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 13, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Orion Advisor Services, LLC, a premier portfolio accounting service provider founded by and for Registered Investment Advisors, is pleased to announce a new release for its Advisor Desktop, a powerful portfolio management suite designed for RIAs as a primary database management tool.

The latest release includes an upgrade that allows advisors to incorporate video market commentary on their client's statements. Clients will be able to scan their iPhone, Droid or other mobile device over the scan tag on the statement and automatically launch the video.

"We live in an increasingly mobile world where more people have a cell phone than a personal computer. Our latest upgrades reflect that reality," said Eric Clarke, President of Orion Advisor Services, LLC. "We developed Advisor Desktop to offer customized solutions that help RIAs grow their business and we believe that will increasingly mean finding new ways to interact with clients utilizing the latest technology."

Advisor Desktop provides advisors with powerful performance reporting and rebalance trading tools, as well as the ability to quickly and easily edit client data all in one system. The desktop application is made available via Orion's data center through a secure Internet connection.

The new feature not only allows clients to hear high-level commentary on the market by just scanning the tag on their statement, but gives advisors a way to interact with their clients through a more direct communication than just a statement on its own.

"Clients want to be able to hear directly from their advisors, but it's not always possible to schedule a meeting or review their statement together," Mr. Clarke said. "The latest upgrade gives advisors another tool to deliver value to their clients. We will continue to look for new ways to provide RIAs with the technology and support they need to serve their clients, manage portfolios and grow their business."
