Count Financial changes van Eyk for Lonsec
Count Financial has appointed Lonsec as its new research provider displacing van Eyk Research.
The publicly listed accountancy-based dealer group announced the change in research providers today.
Count said Lonsec would provide research services to Count for unlisted investment research.
Count chief executive Andrew Gale said the company placed strong emphasis on its robust research process – something which had withstood the difficult market conditions of recent years.
“We are excited about forging a new relationship with Lonsec, to continue to grow Count’s excellent reputation of selecting sound investment funds and platforms for our advisers to use to create effective strategies for their clients,” he said.
The group also announced it had appointed Iress as its software provider, with Iress' Xplan to replace Count's in-house WealthPlanner system.
