Client portfolios, commission structures and compliance evidence in one auditable system.
Financial services firms carry three demands at once: transaction volume, multi-level commission hierarchies, and a regulator entitled to the full audit trail any day.
Essence ERP runs all three off the same transactions, so the numbers never disagree.

Custom ERP & Integrations
What makes this sector hard
These are the failure points behind almost every conversation we have in this sector. A general-purpose ERP solves none of them on its own.
- 01
Portfolios assembled the night before
Client holdings sit across instruments and providers, consolidated by hand for every meeting.
- 02
The commission sheet only one person understands
Multi-level sub-broker hierarchies, slab structures, trail commissions and clawbacks, all in a spreadsheet.
- 03
Compliance on demand
KYC documents, suitability assessments and communication records, complete, whenever asked.
- 04
Reconciliation every settlement cycle
Exchange, depository and provider statements matched by hand against internal records.
- 05
Servicing that depends on memory
Reviews, renewals and maturity follow-ups happen when an advisor remembers.
What ships in the Finance & Broking configuration
Present the first time you open the system, not raised as a change request three months after go-live.
