The Salesforce solution was developed in partnership with Deloitte. TFN is rolling out Financial Services Cloud Einstein, Salesforce Shield, Community Cloud and Marketing Cloud to its offices and agents in the United States and Canada. The company also plans to use Financial Services Cloud Einstein’s intelligence and machine-learning capabilities, according to Salesforce.
