The Challenge

RiskPro, a FinTech platform built for investment advisors, helps clients assess risk, generate proposals, and monitor portfolios. Their legacy systems, however, created critical bottlenecks that threatened their competitive position.

The platform suffered from frequent outages during crucial market moments. A monolithic architecture made new feature development extremely difficult, and mounting technical debt severely slowed innovation. Manual data processes couldn't scale with growing demand. Outdated interfaces were incompatible with modern tools or AI models. To stay competitive, RiskPro needed a serious upgrade to deliver real-time insights, integrate seamlessly with modern systems, and scale instantly when market activity surged. 

How We Did It

Encora partnered with RiskPro to completely reimagine their platform for the modern financial landscape. Recognizing the need for a solution that could grow with the business while meeting strict financial industry requirements, we strategically chose AWS for its proven security and compliance standards. The mission? Transform their platform into a flexible system that could deliver the real-time insights investment advisors depend on to serve their clients effectively. 

A Modular, Cloud-Native Platform

We replaced the legacy monolith with smaller parts that can be updated or replaced without affecting the rest of the platform. This allows independent updates, faster scaling, and better alignment between tech components and business goals.

Faster Data and Better Insights

We rebuilt how the platform handles so information is processed as it comes in, cutting wait times from hours to minutes and giving advisors the instant insights they need.

A Modern Experience for Advisors

We refreshed the platform’s design to make it simpler, faster, and more intuitive. Everyday tasks take fewer steps, and new tools can be added without significant system changes.

The Result: A Modern Platform Built for Speed, Scale, and Innovation

Encora helped RiskPro transform their game with a modern, AWS cloud-native, microservices architecture. The platform now operates with the speed and reliability that financial markets demand. Here's what changed:
