Online financial platform, myprosperity, has added eSignLive e-signatures to allow Australian accountants and financial advisers to offer their clients the ability to review and electronically sign financial documents.

By eliminating the need to leave the portal to sign personal tax returns and statements of advice, clients no longer have to print, scan, fax or mail paperwork or send documents to a separate e-signature solution.

With myprosperity and eSignLive, the entire transaction is completed in less time and takes place entirely behind the accountant or adviser’s portal, freeing up accountants and advisers to better service their clients and uncover additional growth opportunities.

The automated signing process returns documents complete and error-free directly into the accountant or adviser’s portal. eSignLive secures signed documents with one-click verification and a visual audit trail with detailed information about who signed when and where, ensuring the ability to produce comprehensive electronic evidence should a dispute ever arise. 

According to Stephen Jackel, CIO of myprosperity, “There’s a wave of change happening in the financial services industry in Australia centred around delivering business digitally, especially document transaction signing, because it’s a key component of the client-adviser relationship.

“For example, our platform captures upwards of 10,000 signatures annually, so by adding eSignLive, we have the flexibility to provide a completely digital approach to how our partners manage their clients’ finances, while providing the convenience to manage and file their documents in a quicker, more secure and convenient way.”
