Berwyn – September 20, 2026 -- Envestnet has recorded an 82% year-over-year increase in Wealth Data Platform (WDP) users and a 31% rise in firms using the platform as of September 20, 2026, alongside a 102% jump in WDP page views over the same period. The company unveiled its third technology release of 2026 (R3 2026), replacing static peer-average benchmarking with dynamic, contextual performance comparisons across its Adaptive WealthTech ecosystem.

Dynamic benchmarking replaces one-size-fits-all industry averages

The updated Wealth Data Platform now allows firms to compare performance by business segment, geography, and advisor behavior rather than against a single static benchmark. New dimensions include quartile, median, and risk-bucket performance views, plus benchmarking support extended across both U.S. and Canadian advisor populations. Home office leaders gain dedicated views into top- and bottom-performing advisor segments.

Washington – September 16, 2026 -- The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) released new research identifying which telematics metrics deliver the greatest value to motor carriers, exposing a gap between what fleets currently measure and what actually drives safety and operational gains.

Cost-per-mile ranks as top operations metric despite limited adoption

The report, titled "From Telematics Data to Decisions: High-Value Performance Metrics for Trucking Operations," found that managing cost-per-mile scored highest for importance among operations KPIs, yet only 73 percent of surveyed carriers currently track it.

Four safety metrics dominate current fleet adoption

Critical events, speeding, risky driving behavior and hard braking emerged as the four most widely used safety-related KPIs among motor carriers surveyed for the study.
