MyProsperity product gains momentum


The technology platform developed by former financial adviser, Peter McCarthy, myprosperity.com.au appears to be developing some further market momentum, having been picked up by a number of accounting groups.
McCarthy cited Spring Financial Group, PKF and Nexia as having picked up on the technology platform which allows clients to access real time information on their cash accounts, car, properties, shares and superannuation.
Speaking to Money Management last week, McCarthy said the platform was continuing to receive a positive response from accounting and advisory groups because of its time-saving capabilities because it allowed real-time access to data feeds from RPdata, Redbook, Yodlee and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) — something which allowed for uncovering opportunities from existing and potential clients.
The company is providing accounting firm clients with the ability to white label the platform.
