our customers - Sarasin

The challenge was to develop a site as part of a new marketing drive to increase their UK presence, to provide increased services to their clients and forge closer links with intermediaries. The design had to provide a unified branding for several discrete business units - investment, securities and asset management.

Xtranet developed a technically advanced site, but with a focus still on an easy to use, rewarding design. There are continually updated news and on-line publications, with an archiving and search system, while data feeds developed by Xtranet offer hourly updates on major indices and daily fund pricing information. Use of video and audio help bring the site alive. One key technology in place throughout the site is the use of Compliance ring-fencing. The result has been site visits increasing each month by 20%. There has also been a significant increase in product enquires. The site has generated very positive approval from Sarasin’s intermediaries and corporate clients.
