Where RightCapital wins

  • Publishes its prices openly, which is rare among adviser platforms and makes it easy to compare
  • Strong tax and retirement distribution planning, aimed at the decisions advisers get paid to get right
  • Client-facing portal, so the plan is something the client can look at rather than a PDF they were emailed once

Where eMoney Advisor wins

  • Supports both goals-based and cash flow planning, so a firm is not forced into one methodology across every client
  • Built for scale, with tiers running from individual advisers up to enterprise deployment at banks and broker-dealers
  • A well-established client portal and account aggregation layer, so clients see a live picture rather than an annual review pack

Where both fall short

  • Neither handles ISA allowances or the tax wrapper decisions around them.
  • Neither applies UK tax rules to what it shows you.
  • Both are built US-first, so UK users pay in dollars and work around US assumptions.

If neither is quite right

If what you actually want is the retirement answer rather than a better dashboard, that is the gap Delphina was built for: UK pensions, ISAs and tax, projected to the age you want to stop. It does not do the job RightCapital does for us financial advisers running planning and workflows across a client book, so if that is the real problem, RightCapital is still the better buy.
