WINDSOR, Conn., Aug. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSNC) today announced new integrations for SS&C Advent's Black Diamond Wealth Platform with Schwab (NYSE: SCHW) Advisor Center(®). These integrations provide users of Schwab's custodial platform with additional opportunities to eliminate paper-based processes and further digitize their workflows.

The latest integration enhancements include:

        to Schwab with a few clicks.
    --  Digital address change: Address changes can be digitally initiated
        within Black Diamond, without the need for paper forms.
    --  Service center: Advisors can now create Service Requests for Schwab's
        service teams and check the status of open cases directly from within
        Black Diamond.
    --  Straight-through processing of trades through the Financial Information
        Exchange (FIX®) network: Advisors can place trades faster, more
        efficiently, and with less risk of errors directly from Black Diamond
        Rebalancer's trading system.

The new features add to existing integrations with the Schwab Advisor Services platform, which include digital account opening, single sign-on, and money transfer capabilities. Also, Schwab statements and tax documents can be shared automatically to each end client's Black Diamond Client Experience Portal. Advisors can view transactions, balances and positions in near-real-time, and have secure, real-time access to account-level data from Schwab Advisor Center.
