MoneyGuide is financial planning software from Envestnet for financial advisors helping clients work toward lifetime financial goals. It supports goal-based, asset-allocation, and lifetime-income plans, including Monte Carlo simulations on a single income stream. Advisors and clients can collaborate online with view-only or update-all sharing permissions. Planning tools cover retirement, college, estate, insurance needs, risk management, taxes, and Social Security. What-if scenarios and stress tests can model changes in market returns, inflation, taxes, and longevity. Clients can link accounts through MX or Yodlee; listed integrations also include Redtail and Wealthbox. The company says it does not collect or store Social Security, credit card, or account numbers, and that client data is encrypted in transit. MoneyGuide is web-based and compatible with Windows PCs, Macs, iPads, and iPhones. It is non-transactional, so clients cannot access, move, or withdraw funds through the application. A MyBlocks trial lasts 14 days, requires no credit card, and expires automatically.
