AIM Investments announced today that the company's Web
site, AIMinvestments.com, was rated one of the top 10 Financial
Intermediary Web sites by kasina, LLC, a leading management-consulting
firm to the financial services industry.
In the kasina study titled, "Top 10 Intermediary Web Sites:
Supporting the Advisor Sales Cycle," AIMinvestments.com was
highlighted for providing well-organized and extensive e-mail updates.
The study also recognized AIM as one of the "Top 3 Asset Management
Companies -- Implementation," largely due to its integration of DST
Vision(R), an asset management tool for financial advisors, into its
advisor Web site. This marks the seventh year that AIM has received a
top 10 overall rating from kasina.
"The industry is moving towards a more advisor-centric model,"
said Sean Carroll, a consultant with kasina. "AIM has done an
outstanding job of providing advisors with the tools they need to
build and maintain their client base."
The study reviewed the financial intermediary Web sites of 50
asset management firms with over $1 billion in assets under
management. The sites were evaluated in terms of branding, content,
online services, usability, and Web technology.
"We try to give advisors easy access to the information and
resources they need to meet their goals," said Margaret Vinson, AIM's
Director of e-Business & Marketing Services. "Providing high-quality
service and sales support through e-business solutions is always our
foremost goal."
