Wachovia had only just begun marging its back ofice with recently aquired A.G. Edwards when Well Fargo snapped up Wachovia late last year. All those changes make some investors nervous. Jim Hays, president of Wachvoia Retail brokerage units, says brokers like the new link Wells Fargo.
Wachovia revamped last yer and stocks picking, ITs web site on the hother hand, ranked the lowest in the group, with a clunky search tool and dowdy layout. A re-design is in the works. It will cover the search, personal checks, business checks, and alot of other features.
