A Secure Data Room for Financial Advisers
A financial-adviser data room is useful when the main job is to present and control sensitive client-facing documents—not to replace your CRM, portfolio accounting platform, or regulated archive. SendNow Microsites give advisory teams one branded destination for reports, plans, proposals, and supporting files.

Why financial advisers need a dedicated client document room
Financial advisers generate high-value, highly confidential documents—financial plans, portfolio reviews, estate analyses, tax projections, and investment proposals.
Sending these as email attachments creates severe friction: attachments get lost in inboxes, outdated versions circulate, and advisers have zero visibility into whether clients reviewed the recommendations before their meeting. A branded SendNow Client Room centralizes all deliverables into a secure, professional portal.
Suggested adviser client-room structure
A clear 6-section structure keeps client deliverables organized and accessible:

03 — Portfolio Performance & Asset Allocation

Key security controls for financial advisers
Advisers require flexible controls to safeguard sensitive client data:
Recipient email verification
Require clients to authenticate via email before accessing confidential financial plans.
Passcode & link expiry
Add password protection and automated expiry dates to ensure old proposals do not remain permanently accessible.
Dynamic viewer watermarking
Overlay the client's email dynamically across reports to discourage unauthorized sharing.
Instant link revocation
Revoke access to sent documents immediately if an email is sent in error or an engagement concludes.
Compliance & security disclaimer
Important Compliance Note: SendNow provides document-sharing controls that support an advisory firm's client-document workflow. Each firm remains responsible for determining whether its configuration satisfies applicable legal, SEC, FINRA, state regulatory, and recordkeeping obligations.
