Fred Parsons, CEO

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Over the past 3 months I visited more clients. I am inspired by the support that each of you has given our firm.  
I am also gratified that our plans for 2010 are on track. These are enhancements that you feel will help increase your business, improve your workflow and lower your expenses. That's our focus and I am sure yours too.  
We also know we're doing the right things because we had record sales the past quarter.
I wish all of you the very best for the holidays and a prosperous and healthy 2010.  I thank you for your business.
 
Remember it's not how big you are, but how good you are!
 
Many thanks and enjoy the Newsletter.

Sincerely,

Fred Parsons,

Dear Friends,

Review Tips:

  1. Company financial data, ratios, cash flows and price performance are all link to MS Excel - the feature is called "Telemet IQ" and it's bundled into your Telemet platform.   
  2. Remember Advent APX & Axys links save your firm from costly data downloads from third parties.
New Portfolio Analytics
Our true transaction-based, time-weighted attribution module, bundled into Telemet has been a very popular leg of our platform.   We continue to add benchmarks and reporting capabilities.   

This module shows real sources of return, by sector and industry.  It shows where a portfolio is over or under weighted and whether this has helped or hurt the portfolio's return.  

We have added new custom 'as-of-date" reports to this module so that you may reach back to prior quarters and years to see portfolio characteristics as of those dates.   

Further we have added a scheduler so that these reports may be printed at the end of a week, month or quarter without your pressing a button.  

In addition, all report data may be downloaded into MS Excel so that you firm can create is own "look and feel" for these data.

Telemet's portfolio analytics happen at the desktop, and your analyses appear instantly.  Call us at 800-368-2078 for more information on how to use these reports and get our latest enhancements.
New Bond Data Access
Corporate and Muni bond data are now just a click away with Telemet's new enhanced links to descriptive bond data.  Load bonds onto Telemet's custom pages, see portfolio weighting by asset class, coupons and maturities.  Print these as reports for clients and peer meetings.

Drill down from bonds to see very detailed descriptive data on any of millions of these issues.   Evaluated prices, put and call schedules, ratings, payment dates and issuer details are among the data available on any bond.  Some of our clients have eliminated very high priced Bloombergs with these data.  Call us at 800-368-2078 to get this enhancement.
Review - Sharing Data with Portfolio Accounting Platforms
Lower your costs to price securities and apply dividends to your portfolio accounting system.    It's all done with TeleVista.

Security price and dividend data from Telemet now populate many accounting platforms including popular Advent Axys and APX.  This eases what has become an expensive process.  We extend a special thanks to clients that helped us with this latest integration! A win-win for all.    Call us to find out more on how you can cut costs and click here to get the latest version of TeleVista.
Review - Telemet IQ
Telemet IQ, bundled with the Telemet Orion investment platform, puts corporate financial data (balance sheets, income statements, cash flows) into the world's most popular spreadsheet, MS Excel.  

Thus you get stunning reports and charts that are 'presentation' ready.   Further these data ar 'up-to-date' with the latest prices and financial data.    Our latest software includes several sample spreadsheets to illustrate these reports.  Select the 'Display' menu then 'Research' and then 'Excel Templates'.

Further, those of you that are analysts save time and effort because you do not have to manually enter financial data (income statements, balance sheets, ratios, and cash flows).  This 'frees-up' more time for company analysis such as comparing financials and performing 'what if' analyses on expenses or revenue.  Call us at 800-368-2078 for individualized training.
Thank you for choosing Telemet as your "Partner in Smart Investing"!  Please share your comments with us about this newsletter or any other topic!
