The Challenge:
Kenno sought to transform its digital presence to reflect its premium brand, Nordic integrity, and commitment to client transparency. The firm faced a dual challenge: first, modernising its legacy corporate website to achieve high performance, SEO compliance, and a visually sophisticated design. Secondly, and crucially, Kenno needed to develop a highly secure Investor Portal capable of integrating with real-time financial APIs, moving beyond static reports to provide clients with dynamic, up-to-date portfolio insights.
This transformation was essential to cement Kenno’s position as a technology-driven leader in asset management.
The Approach:
Saigon Digital addressed these complex requirements through a phased, collaborative strategy, focusing on architectural choice and seamless design integration.
Website Revamp - A Modern, Scalable Experience
We adopted a headless approach to separate content management from the front-end presentation, ensuring maximum performance and flexibility:
- HubSpot CMS + React: Utilising HubSpot CMS in Headless Mode integrated with React allowed Kenno’s marketing team the ease of content management while benefiting from React’s speed and modern performance capabilities.
- Design & Storytelling: Worked in tandem with Sedgwick Richardson to bring the bespoke design to life, emphasizing clarity, transparency, and premium visual storytelling.
- Technical Foundation: Prioritising an SEO-friendly foundation with clean code, optimised metadata, and full compliance with Core Web Vitals.
Investor Portal - Empowering Transparency Through Technology
For the client-facing portal, security and data reliability were paramount:
- Custom Secure System: Developed a dedicated, secure login system for investors to access personalised dashboards.
- Real-Time Integration: Integrated real-time financial APIs to stream up-to-date funding details and portfolio performance directly to the client dashboard.
- UX Continuity: Designed the portal’s interface to be clean and intuitive, maintaining brand aesthetic alignment with the main corporate site for a seamless user journey.
The Solutions:
- MODERN ARCHITECTURE
- SECURE CLIENT ACCESS
