Financial Synergy upgrades Acurity platform
Superannuation and investment software provider Financial Synergy has signaled it is close to releasing an updated version of its Acurity administration platform.
It said the upcoming release would accommodate Stronger Super legislative changes such as MySuper, SuperStream, and ATO integration for unclaimed super money and lost-member reporting.
It said the release was the outcome of an intensive period of consultation and development, with the company having worked closely with its client base to finalise solution designs.
"This release will give all of our Acurity users as much time as possible to test and ready themselves for what are significant changes for the industry," Financial Synergy chief executive Stephen Mackley said.
