The age of digital advice is here
With the emergence of automated advisors and the increasing evolution of consumer-friendly technology, many wealth management firms seek ways to:
- Improve the client experience to remain competitive and appeal to changing investor preferences
- Serve smaller accounts and high potential clients in an engaging and scalable way
- Boost advisor productivity
Digital advice is the latest technology solution to help firms achieve these goals – and more.
