Paperwork
Every form per client. Unsigned for more than 14 days escalates to the branch supervisor (illustrative procedure); Wealth Advice Center, remote pooled coverage: 7 days. A segment or client can only shorten this. Reminders are drafted; people send them.
I read 15 forms across Margaret Ellison's 7 client files, against each household's escalation threshold. 4 escalated to the branch supervisor; 7 reminders drafted; 4 signed and closed.
