The Challenge
The existing way of overviewing the Company information in the platform was static and text-heavy, leading to user drop-off and poor engagement.
Different user profiles had different information needs, but the one-size-fits-all layout failed to support them.
Addressing individual feature requests and tactical CSM feedback was proving unsustainable. The experience needed a more strategic rethink. One that could serve multiple user profiles with clarity and long-term scalability.
The solution
Based on my validated hypothesis that a static, one-size-fits-all layout was failing to meet diverse user needs, I proposed a more dynamic and modular approach.
This led to the design of a customisable dashboard built with modular cards and case-specific defaults.
Giving users a quick, relevant overview while allowing deeper access to full apps when needed.
Personas and
sub-personas
Even within the same role, users often need different views. Each section can start from a prebuilt template, such as HNW Client Overview, ESG Snapshot, or Fixed Income Insights, or be built from scratch as a custom set.
Advisors can add relevant cards, rename blocks, and tailor content to fit specific clients, sub-personas, or evolving workflows.
Process Highlights
01
Reframed the scope beyond feature tweaks by introducing a design hypothesis: a modular, role-aware dashboard would increase relevance and usability.
02
Conducted research synthesis, workflow mapping, and targeted interviews with financial personas to understand primary activies (Wealth, FX, IB and so on).
03
Collaborated with teams across design systems, platform, data visualisation, and core product apps to align on feasibility and patterns.
04
Designed and tested a front-end MVP to validate interaction patterns like drag-drop, resizing, and card customisation.
