Never lost for words
With quality data at your fingertips, the VRS Commentary Module, which is an integral part of DGS, allows your writers, analysts and editors to add meaning and interpretation directly into reports using rich text input.

It’s a vital function that adds output value and clearly differentiates your organisation in a highly competitive market. With our unique templates, it’s as easy to achieve totally personalised documents for individual clients as it is for groups or an entire customer base. The ability to automatically re-use sections of commentary in many different reports without the need to constantly re-input saves valuable time and reduces the likelihood of errors. And with in-built authorisation and approval procedures, you can be sure of maintaining high quality and accuracy as well as meeting legal requirements.

This means that thousands of reports can incorporate what could be very few statements, each relating to a different type of account, giving the end reader the impression that the report has been created uniquely for them – all managed automatically without any specific custom coding.

The potential for this is great – allowing smart text, stock stories and market or portfolio commentary to be added efficiently for each client report, but with the ability at all times to customise the statements specifically for the client if the fund manager feels it necessary.

Commentary is also capable of being pre-branded or brand free – allowing underlying corporate branding to take over and ensure consistency with client communications.
