Working with Merrill means more than just working with an industry leader in offset and digital printing for the financial services industry. It means being introduced to smarter ways to work. Merrill is constantly exploring new ways to improve results and lower expenses.

Intelligent Print, one Merrill’s most recent innovations, solves the long-standing problem of printing and sending phonebook-sized collections of all compliance communications for all funds to all customers, whether they need all the information or not.

Intelligent Print uses database information and scenario analysis to determine the right combinations and quantities for everyone. You can then deliver smaller, individualized compliance documents at a far lower cost because you’ve eliminated unnecessary printing and postage costs. Intelligent Print exemplifies the passion for improvement we bring to every project and client relationship we manage. It distinguishes us from the crowd.

Offset printing

Merrill’s history and core competency lies in print. We can produce practically anything put on paper to world-class standards. As a financial printer, we rank among the world's largest, with all the support services needed in all major financial markets. We handle regulatory and compliance documents of all sizes, quantities and standards, including bindery and finishing. From small 10-Qs to the largest, most sensitive cross-border merger and acquisition transactions, we deliver industry-leading compliance and transaction services.

Digital printing

Merrill is a global leader in digital print and electronic content management. We help our clients produce more effective marketing collateral at greatly reduced obsolescence rates. With Merrill's digital print services, clients gain direct access to our production facilities so that they can check in digital assets, search their digital content library and assemble custom documents "on the fly." The documents can then be printed digitally, combined with other inventoried collateral and shipped the same day.

Intelligent Print

Merrill Intelligent Print matches individual account holdings with the necessary compliance documents to create portfolio-specific booklets of regulatory disclosures, including prospectuses, prospectus supplements, annual and semi-annual reports, and other communications such as letters, reports and other marketing materials for policyholders or shareholders.

As a result, Merrill's clients print fewer pages, shorten print runs, store fewer books in the warehouse and worry less about obsolescence – and ultimately lower their costs. The customer experience is improved because they receive only the documents they need. And finally, workload is reduced, as Merrill analyzes the optimal print runs (digital or offset) and document sizes for postal considerations.
