- Introducing full wealth management into a client bank

The Paradigm Wrap has been developed in conjunction with our business partners, Nucleus Financial. Offering online access to a full range of tax wrappers and wide access to funds, the Paradigm Wrap allows you to view and manage your clients affairs 24/7 at the click of a mouse.
From day one the Paradigm Wrap will allow clients to run the following ‘tax wrapper’ accounts: Maxi-Isa, PEP transfer, SIPP, protected rights pension, offshore bond, onshore bond and of course an unwrapped general account.
In addition to being able to apply and effect transactions online the Paradigm Wrap includes a full fund analysis section, offers Financial Advisers the ability to create reports and has a full library of associated documentation.
Built on market-leading, proven technology imported to the UK by Australia’s Bravura Solutions, the Nucleus Wrap has rapidly become the most efficient Wrap platform in the UK since going live just before Christmas 2006. By licensing a tried and tested solution, we have been able to reduce the technology and operational risks that have led to disappointment and frustration for Financial Advisers using other similar platforms. Not only that, but the pricing of the Paradigm Wrap could dramatically undercut other market participants.
Mortgages
Within the Paradigm Group is Paradigm Mortgage Services which offers a suite of benefits to businesses and advisers in the mortgage market.
Planning & Complex Advice
Paradigm Financial Advisers recognises that some businesses will need varying types of Financial Adviser support.
PFA will not only provide clear and robust sales processes, we will provide services that meet the needs of our customers and will deliver solutions to meet those needs, from paraplanning services through to complex and corporate advice.
These propositions will evolve alongside our customers’ needs.
