Summary of Report and Client Types

The Genovo app caters for a variety of report and client types.

Report Types

Suitability Report

Designed to ensure you fulfil all of the regulator’s expectations of you when recommending a new product for a new or existing client and / or replacement business.

Review Report 2.0

Designed to allow users to provide an existing client with a holistic review of their financial affairs, as well as their existing investments as part of an annual (or more frequent) review service.

Fund Switch Report

Designed to streamline the process of recommending a change of investment strategy for a client’s existing plan(s).

Top-up / Bed & ISA Report

Designed to streamline the process of recommending a top-up or bed & ISA of a client’s existing plan(s).

Continued Suitability Report

This is shorter and more product focused than the Review Report 2.0.
