Rathbone Investment Management (Rathbones), a leading UK provider of discretionary investment management services with £17.35 billion assets under management, has appointed Equipos and OpenText to design, build and maintain the firm's online and mobile client communications infrastructure.

The revolutionary combination of Equipos Coric Client Communications Suite and OpenText Enterprise Information Management (EIM) software will further enhance client experience for Rathbones' wealth management clients and intermediaries, by providing access to reports, portfolio valuations and other client communications via the client's desktop or mobile device.

By communicating effectively with clients, in a way that is relevant, timely and suits their lifestyles, Rathbones is delivering on its promise to enrich client experience.
