CINCINNATI, OH / ACCESSWIRE / September 29, 2022 / Luma Financial Technologies ('Luma'), an independent, multi-issuer structured products and annuities platform, announced they have signed an agreement with Morningstar, launching Canadian structured products data within Morningstar® Advisor WorkstationSM today.
'Transparency is the key to unlocking suitability and a more comfortable investing experience when it comes to transacting with structured products,' said Todd Dilatush, Director of National Sales for Luma. 'By supplying Morningstar with our expansive Canadian structured product data, we hope to continue helping financial professionals in bringing forward solutions that fit their clients' individual risk profiles. We're thrilled to take the next step in our relationship with Morningstar and can't wait for what might be in store next as we continue to drive transformation within the industry.'
Luma's comprehensive Canadian product detail pages are now available to Morningstar Advisor Workstation subscribers. Advisors and other financial professionals who use Morningstar Advisor Workstation can analyze, manage, and allocate structured products in an overall client portfolio context.
'We're delighted to further offer our Advisor Workstation users access to transparent structured product data in order to help investors make better informed decisions and drive the use of more suitable investment decisions that match client objectives. As the popularity of structured products continues to grow in Canada, we're excited to evolve our relationship with Luma and bring exciting features to our customers to help empower investor success,' said Scott Mackenzie, President and CEO of Morningstar Canada.
Luma and Morningstar first collaborated this past March when the availability of U.S. structured product data for Advisor Workstation subscribers was announced. Additionally, with Luma recently expanding its presence into Canada, the availability of Canadian structured product data for Advisor Workstation subscribers was a natural next step. Work is underway to develop analytical features for Canadian structured products on Advisor Workstation to enable subscribers to see the overall portfolio impact a Canadian structure product could have on an individual client's portfolio.
Luma's award-winning platform was built on the foundation of objectivity and transparency to best aid financial professionals when it comes to comparing, selecting, customizing, pricing, and tracking the broadest range of structured products.
