BOSTON, Jan. 12, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dalbar announced today the 2015 winner of its Total Client Experience Award. For the fifth consecutive year, Putnam Investments was the only firm to emerge as a leader in the combination of quality, accuracy, and security of customer service provided to investors.
The Dalbar Information & Transaction Accuracy Program measures the complete experience of the customer, evaluating the level of professionalism that is demonstrated by the financial services firm’s personnel and the follow through – the accurate execution of transactions and requests while ensuring thorough security protocols.

- Verifying the identity of customers before discussing any sensitive information about their account
The Total Client Experience Award is based on systematic testing throughout the year.

This takes a high degree of professionalism coupled with ensuring accuracy in the information that is provided, or transaction being conducted on their behalf,” said Kathleen Whalen, Managing Director at Dalbar.
