  • Designed tab-based navigation system for merging different tools onto one platform

D2 was one of the most robust deal-tracking tools in the Institutional Banking industry.
Navigation comprised a set number of permanent tabs, and allowed users to open new tabs for deals and clients as needed.
Deals were consolidated and managed in one place throughout their entire lifecycle.
The complex process of creating new deals was simplified into a step-by-step guide.
Individual deals could be opened in separate tabs to access all details and functionality.
All clients could be accessed in a single location, eliminating redundancy and reducing legal risk.
All information about a client, and all of their associated deals, were available on a dedicated client tab.
Executives could compile live data and view as graphs and other  visualizations.
