### 1.2 Core Business Processes
#### 1.2.1 Client Lifecycle
```
Prospect → Onboarding → KYC/AML/Suitability → Account Opening →
Financial Planning → Investment Proposal → Execution → Ongoing Advisory →
Rebalancing → Reporting → Review → Offboarding
```
**Key process details for proposals:**
- **Client Onboarding & KYC/AML**: Identity verification (IDV), beneficial ownership, PEP/sanctions screening, risk profiling, suitability assessment, document collection (W-9, W-8BEN, trust docs). Typical pain point: 15–45 day onboarding cycle → propose AI-driven reduction to 3–5 days.
- **Suitability & Risk Profiling**: Investment questionnaire, risk tolerance scoring (conservative/moderate/aggressive/speculative), time horizon, liquidity needs, concentration limits, ESG preferences. Regulatory requirement — must document and review periodically.
- **Financial Planning**: Goal-based planning (retirement, education, estate), Monte Carlo simulations, cash flow projections, tax-loss harvesting modeling, Social Security optimization, insurance gap analysis.
- **Investment Proposal Generation**: Model portfolio selection, custom portfolio construction, proposal document generation with projections, fee disclosure, risk metrics (Sharpe, Sortino, max drawdown, VaR).
- **Trading & Execution**: Order management, block trading, allocation, best execution (Reg NMS), trade confirmation, settlement (T+1).
- **Portfolio Rebalancing**: Drift monitoring, threshold-based triggers, tax-aware rebalancing, cash flow-aware rebalancing, multi-account household rebalancing.
- **Performance Reporting**: TWR/MWR calculations, benchmark comparison, attribution analysis (Brinson), composite reporting (GIPS), client-facing statements.
- **Billing & Fee Management**: AUM-based fees, tiered fee schedules, performance fees (hedge fund), fee-in-lieu, household billing, fee splits (advisor/firm).
#### 1.2.2 Advisor Workflow
```
Morning Book Review → Research & Market Intel → Client Meetings →
Financial Plan Updates → Trade Execution → Compliance Review →
CRM Updates → End-of-Day Reconciliation
```
**Advisor pain points to address in proposals:**
- Toggling between 8–12 systems daily (CRM, portfolio mgmt, planning, compliance, trading, reporting)
- Manual data entry and re-keying across systems
- Compliance documentation burden
- Slow client onboarding reducing time-to-revenue

### 2.7 Pricing Considerations — Wealth Management
When estimating wealth management engagements, account for:
- **Integration complexity is the #1 cost driver** — custodian integrations (Pershing, Schwab, Fidelity) are notoriously complex with proprietary formats and slow certification processes. Budget 4–6 weeks per custodian.
- **Compliance adds 20–30% to base effort** — every feature needs compliance review, audit trail, and regulatory documentation.
- **Data migration is substantial** — historical portfolio data, client records, and documents from legacy systems. Budget 15–20% of total effort.
- **UAT cycles are longer** — wealth management firms require extensive UAT with real advisor testing. Plan 6–8 weeks minimum.
- **Training is critical** — advisors resist change; budget for comprehensive training program with champions network.
**Typical engagement sizes:**
| Scope | Duration | Team Size | AUM Range |
|-------|----------|-----------|-----------|
| **Robo-Advisory MVP** | 16–20 weeks | 6–8 | Mass affluent |
| **Advisor Workbench** | 24–32 weeks | 10–14 | HNW |
| **Full WM Platform** | 36–48 weeks | 16–22 | Multi-tier |
| **Enterprise Transformation** | 48–60+ weeks | 20–30+ | UHNW + Institutional |
---
## Part 3: Proposal Writing Guidance
### 3.1 Win Themes for Wealth Management RFPs
Use 3–4 of these win themes based on the specific RFP:
1. **AI-First, Not AI-Bolted**: Unlike legacy platforms adding AI as a feature, Aiden AI Builder is designed from the ground up for AI-driven wealth management. Every workflow has an intelligent agent, not just a chatbot.
2. **Advisor Empowerment, Not Replacement**: Our AI copilot makes advisors superhuman — handling data grunt work, compliance documentation, and meeting prep — so advisors spend 70% more time with clients instead of systems.
3. **Compliance by Design**: Regulatory compliance isn't a module — it's woven into every agent, every workflow, every data access. Full audit trail, real-time surveillance, and configurable rules that adapt as regulations evolve.
4. **Time-to-Value**: Phase 1 delivers a working Client 360 and advisor portal in 8 weeks. Advisors see value immediately while the platform grows around them.
5. **Future-Proof Architecture**: MCP 2.0, multi-model AI, and knowledge graph foundation means the platform evolves with new AI capabilities, new regulations, and new business needs without rearchitecting.
6. **Proven at Scale**: Reference Aiden AI case studies showing enterprise-grade AI deployments in financial services.
### 3.2 Common RFP Questions — Wealth Management
Prepare answers for these frequently asked questions:
| Question | Key Points to Cover |
|----------|-------------------|
| How do you handle fiduciary documentation? | Automatic Reg BI documentation, recommendation rationale capture, audit trail |
| What custodians do you integrate with? | Pershing, Schwab, Fidelity, DTCC — via FIX, proprietary APIs, file-based |
| How does your AI handle market volatility? | Circuit breakers, human-in-the-loop for large trades, configurable risk thresholds |
| What about held-away assets? | Plaid/Yodlee integration, manual entry, document extraction from statements |
| How do you support multi-entity households? | Household-level aggregation, account-level permissioning, unified reporting |
| GIPS compliance? | GIPS-compliant composite construction and reporting |
| What happens when the AI is wrong? | Human-in-the-loop checkpoints, confidence scoring, explainable recommendations |
| Data migration from legacy? | Proven migration framework, data quality scoring, parallel run validation |
### 3.3 Competitor Positioning
| Competitor | Their Strength | Our Counter |
|-----------|---------------|-------------|
| **Salesforce FSC** | CRM dominance, ecosystem | We integrate with Salesforce; our AI layer is far superior to Einstein for WM |
| **SS&C Advent/Black Diamond** | Deep portfolio accounting | We complement or replace with modern, AI-native portfolio intelligence |
| **Envestnet/Tamarac** | UMA/SMA, turnkey asset mgmt | We offer custom AI agents that go beyond rules-based rebalancing |
| **Orion** | Advisor-friendly, good reporting | We match UX and add AI copilot, compliance automation, and Client 360 |
| **Broadridge** | Back-office strength | We focus on front/middle office AI; can integrate with Broadridge back-office |
| **InvestCloud** | Digital client experience | Our agentic AI and knowledge graph are a generation ahead |

## Part 4: Technical Deep Dives (Use When RFP Requires Detail)
### 4.1 Tax-Aware Rebalancing Algorithm
When proposals require rebalancing detail, describe this approach:
```
Input: Current holdings, target allocation, tax lots, wash sale calendar,
pending cash flows, restrictions, client tax bracket
Steps:
1. Calculate drift per asset class (current vs. target weight)
2. Identify tax-loss harvesting opportunities (lots with unrealized losses)
3. Check wash sale window (31 days before/after)
4. Prioritize sells: losses first (harvest), then long-term gains, then short-term
5. Apply restriction overlays (ESG, concentrated positions, client restrictions)
6. Optimize across household accounts (asset location: tax-exempt vs. taxable)
7. Generate trade list with estimated tax impact
8. Submit for compliance pre-check
9. Route to advisor for approval (or auto-execute if within parameters)
Output: Approved trade list, estimated tax savings, before/after allocation,
compliance confirmation, audit trail entry
```
### 4.2 Client Risk Scoring Model
```
Risk Score = f(Questionnaire Score, Behavioral Score, Capacity Score)
Questionnaire Score (40%):
- Time horizon, loss tolerance, income stability, experience level
- Adaptive: follow-up questions based on inconsistent answers
Behavioral Score (30%):
- Trading frequency, reaction to drawdowns, cash holding patterns
- Derived from historical data, updated continuously
Capacity Score (30%):
- Income-to-expense ratio, emergency fund, insurance coverage, debt levels
- Calculated from financial plan data
Output: 1–100 score mapped to:
1–20: Conservative | 21–40: Moderate Conservative | 41–60: Moderate
61–80: Moderate Aggressive | 81–100: Aggressive
AI Enhancement: LLM analyzes free-text responses and advisor notes to detect
risk tolerance signals not captured by numeric questionnaire.
```
### 4.3 Performance Attribution (Brinson Model)
When RFP requires performance reporting detail:
```
Total Active Return = Allocation Effect + Selection Effect + Interaction Effect
Allocation Effect: Did the manager over/underweight the right sectors?
Selection Effect: Did the manager pick the right securities within sectors?
Interaction Effect: Cross-product of allocation and selection decisions
Implementation in AIDAP:
- Nightly batch calculation against configurable benchmarks
- Multi-level attribution (asset class → sector → industry → security)
- Currency attribution for international portfolios
- Fixed income attribution (duration, credit, yield curve)
- Visual drill-down in advisor workbench and client portal
```
