Reinventing the Role of the Financial Printer

BOSTON, May 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- John Clunan, best known from establishing Merrill Corp.'s Boston office over 20 years ago and credited for growing that company from an unknown Midwest printer, is reinventing financial publishing.

With the ever-changing landscape among his mutual fund and corporate clients, as Principal of Radius Financial Compliance Group, a division of Radius, John has positioned the company to service the financial sector with technology, turn-times, and pricing that reflect advances made in the industry. "We know their pains and we established Radius Financial Compliance Group to reinvent the role of the print provider."

The SEC final rulings that affect 33 and 40 Act companies isn't news to anyone, nor is the reality of the deadlines to produce the print, SEC compliant HTML, and XBRL documents news to any Fund Administrator, Fund Accountant, Mutual Fund Marketing Professional, or Legal Department. "I haven't become successful by knocking my competition, but I will say that Radius is small enough to be able to implement change quickly and we feel responsible to do so."

Radius has been able to reduce production calendars by a week by providing their services. "All of our clients receive this kind of service, we don't just cater to some," said John. He explains that Radius has introduced significant advances to financial professionals with the advent of Radius Global Publisher. "This proprietary software generates a typeset print ready proof, an SEC compliant HTML document, and a mapped and tagged XBRL document - dynamically." Radius clients also have the choice and capability to edit their source document via their hand held mobile device and all documents are stored on the Cloud, another industry first. Radius Financial Compliance Group offers clients tools to streamline communications with document management, remote access to documents, and 24/7/365 coverage. "We've even developed a solution for fund accountants who must manually foot their financials after edit rounds," John said. "Our company knows the industry, and our clients know we're here to make a difference. Our developers create solutions, the marketing side can develop and print corresponding documentation, and our support team can be on-site to give hands-on demos – all within a week. And that's just how it should work."

Radius also offers content management, document hosting, and the Radius Marketing Group provides print-on-demand, and sheet and web printing, creative services, web development, and warehousing and fulfillment services.

Anyone that traveled on the Southeast Expressway last year saw the billboard that Radius leased for the season. With their logo sporting a green cog, a single sentence read, "The only thing we don't print is money." There is a new player in Boston, and they've been busy introducing themselves nationwide.

Radius Financial Compliance Group shares its roof with Radius Marketing Group south of Boston in Pembroke, MA, and has a satellite location conveniently located on Route 93 to serve their corporate clients on the belt.
