DASH Technology Group receives VC backing to accelerate innovation in wealth management

DASH Technology Group has secured funding from its recent capital raise, highlighting investor confidence in the company despite the reduction of venture capital funding into global fintech. As DASH nears its first anniversary, the innovative technology company has announced that Australian venture capital firm CoAct have finalised their investment.

CoAct believes DASH will play an important role in making financial advice more accessible to everyday Australians.

CoAct Principal, Ash Lambert states “DASH’s technology roadmap has the potential to transform how financial advice is delivered, which could meaningfully reduce the costs and barriers to receiving good advice.”

The investment will enable DASH to continue its development and provide even greater solutions to advisers and licensees, ultimately streamlining advice process and implementation workflows.

These enhancements to the advice process will see advisers and their teams increase productivity by removing the administrative burden that is most often felt in back offices, as well as lowering the cost to service clients.

DASH CEO, Andrew Whelan states “We have a strong growth strategy that we have developed through listening to the pain points that financial planning practices are currently dealing with. We believe our solution and vision is a much-needed breath of fresh air for Australian advice professionals who have been stuck with the status quo for a number of years.”

“Once we see technology innovation being implemented within practices, advice becomes accessible for more Australians.” He continues.

DASH already provides advisers with the option to go from fact find right through to advice creation and implementation, a complete advice solution that can be integrated from end-to-end.

"With DASH we’re able to move very quickly and ensure every portfolio is optimised across a large client base. It’s orderly, process-driven and was made easy to implement through professional support."

"DASH enables us to manage our clients’ portfolios in a systemised way. It reduces implementation time because we don’t have to trade manually any more, it’s all automatic. Nothing is ad hoc, and everything is on one system."

Steve Woodford, Frontier Financial Group

"DASH's managed account and SMSF solutions have helped us deliver best outcomes for our low and high balance clients."

Nigel Baker, Arch Capital

"Thanks to the DASH team for creating such great products. They were able to swiftly use our API for life insurance product comparisons and create a useful web application in no time - these are software developers you can count on."

“I found DASH after trying many different software solutions, which all were trying to be ‘the one’ solution. DASH has been great as I can connect the software I need and build the advice software which works for me. The support has been excellent and the fact that I can import my Astute Wheel data straight into DASH to then use in the SOA and ROA has saved me significant amounts of time per client, as no more re-keying data! The SOA and ROA are also the most client friendly documents I have found and the feedback from clients has been excellent. I highly recommend DASH.”
