Van Eyk ticks box for AMP planners

AMP Financial Services has re-signed van Eyk research for a further three years to provide access to its iRate online research platform to AMP Financial Planning (AMPFP), Hillross and Genesys planners.

The iRate platform provides planners access to research, the van Eyk fund-manager-ratings screen, portfolio-construction tools and analytics to assist in the portfolio-construction process.

AMP advice integration manager, Andy King, said the re-signing reflected the value the AMP Group planners placed on van Eyk’s services.

“The services van Eyk provides are highly valued by our planners and we look forward to working with van Eyk to continue to provide a high level of investment support to planners and their customers,” he said.

Van Eyk Research chief executive, Mark Thomas, said he was pleased van Eyk would continue to work with AMP to assist its clients in meeting their investment goals.

“Van Eyk is committed to conducting deep research and pursuing the results with conviction while delivering high standards of client service,” he said.

The agreement is effective from October 1, 2012.
