Comentis delivers a digital assessment platform to identify and support vulnerable customers, clients or patients
In a world where duty of care for your customers, clients or patients is increasingly important, the ability to identify and support those who are deemed vulnerable is paramount for all types of regulated organisations.
Whether it's due to cognitive decline, changing financial or personal circumstances or a lack of mental capacity, we understand that being able to identify and support affected individuals represents a growing issue, driven by a number of factors:
-
Increased regulatory focus on financially vulnerable customers or those lacking mental capacity
-
Alignment to ESG and impact objectives
-
Corporate risk mitigation
-
Increased consumer awareness
To help organisations meet this challenge, Comentis provides a cost effective and efficient online assessment platform which enables you to consistently and objectively identify and support those at risk of financial vulnerability or with reduced mental capacity and report on this quickly and easily.
A unique approach to a growing issue
By bringing together extensive clinical and digital expertise, Comentis uses a 3-step process to help organisations proactively identify and support their customers, clients or patients and produce comprehensive reports.
Identify
Our quick and easy-to-use online assessments guide the user through a series of clinically curated questions which consistently and objectively flag those who are financially vulnerable and/or lack mental capacity.

Support
Our assessments offer suggestions to help the professional support the individual during a capacity assessment or once a vulnerability has been identified. It also logs the actions taken and support given.
Report
At the click of a button, an ID-stamped report is generated which helps meet regulatory obligations. Where appropriate, there is also a full MI, dashboard and analytics suite to ensure a robust audit trail.

With the FCA's growing focus on the identification and support of financially vulnerable customers, it's imperative that financial services organisations are able to identify those customers who are potentially at-risk.
