The DST Advantage
Industry Commitment – Since 1969, our primary business has been providing technology and services to the mutual fund industry. As the largest provider of third-party shareholder recordkeeping services in the United States, you can count on us for the industry-wide scale and continued investments to support your needs now and into the future.
TA2000 Integration – Other data scrubbing services only offer a partial solution since they are not integrated with TA2000. We strongly believe in end-to-end data quality which means starting at the source. If shareholder accounts are established on TA2000 without being scrubbed, then you will continually be fighting trades with invalid branch or rep codes in your sales system and may have unreconciled reporting differences with TA2000. Accounts with invalid branch or rep codes can also have negative impacts to dealer mailings, commission runs, and advisor access to the DST Vision Web site.
Client Base – We currently perform nightly trade scrubbing for more than 50 asset managers including many top tier fund families. The strength of the client base is a testament to how clients view our offering in the marketplace. Additionally, continuous feedback from our clients serves an integral role in ensuring the completeness and timeliness of our firm, office, and advisor updates.
Winchester Data Center – As a DST® hosted solution, there is no hardware or software to buy and you don’t have to worry about database administration, file loads, upgrades, or testing. The SalesConnect application is hosted by the Winchester Data Center, the same data center that houses your TA2000 shareholder accounts. Therefore, you can have the same level of confidence in Winchester’s robust capabilities for security, recovery, and scalability.
Service Reputation – As a current DST/BFDS client, you have an established service model and champion in your dedicated client service team. Their experience and institutional knowledge of your business will help ensure a smooth conversion and on-going coordination with related business events.
