Project Overview
Project Description
Problem Statement: To productionise the current use of Excel solution in order to improve scalability performance as well as the efficiency of client servicing.
Investment counsellors help HNWI and UHNWI in managing their investment portfolios, hence, they need quick access to a client’s positions and real-time market data. Thus, this project entails building a dashboard that comprise current operation needs as well as having value-added services for HNWI and UHNWI clients. The use of microservices architecture can enable the dashboard to be updated with real-time client and market information, while maintaining a scalable backend architecture. Additionally, the implementation of thematic segmentation of market information and client profiling can increase collaboration between investment counsellors and subject matter experts.
Motivation
Currently, there is a lot of back-and-forth communication between the investment counsellors and the clients which can affect the efficiency of their service. Thus, it is essential to provide clients accurate information quickly and valuable insights of the trades through data analytics and alert functions. Another concern is that the current application can be enhanced aesthetically to help the team quickly visualise certain information such as the profit margin.

Deliverables
A dashboard that is able to be productionized and to be able to run according to the functionalities required for the business operations.
Scope
Primary: The focus is the prototyping process to create a dashboard that will provide end-users with maximum value. The prototype will consist of all the mentioned modules, demonstrating an experiential solution to the Investment Counsellors. This will be done using the REACT Framework.

Next, the teams will conduct usability tests to gather feedback to improve the design for the modules stated in primary. Based on the input, the team will refine the prototype, improving the overall user experience. Simultaneously, the team will work on the development of the secondary modules.
Once the team is done with both the primary and secondary modules, the team will conduct User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with the Investment Counsellors. At the same time, the team will also explore other areas of improvement and possible additions to add value to the dashboard.
