Wealth management is evolving.
Are you ready?
The opportunity of our generation has begun. The wealth management industry is ripe for change as our clients continue to search for more meaningful forms of planning, value and experiences.
As our clients’ needs and desires evolve, so must our industry and our firms. Join us and lead an evolution.
Clients want more than standard investment advice.
A generation ago, advisors could compete on prices and performance because they held information and access.
Today, advisors may compete on intellectual expertise and processes. However, clients want more than standard investment advice.
Of 300,000+ Financial Advisors, all provide investment planning. Of these advisors, about 35-50% provide financial planning as a core client service as well.
However, only a small fraction of advisors, an estimated 1-5%, deliver relational planning. This type of planning enhances financial planning to a deeper and more personalized level. It includes helping clients achieve goals, dreams, meaning and fulfillment.
The 3-part planning process:
the critical component
to your practice
Investment Planning + Financial Planning + Life Planning
We believe advisors who provide a 3-part planning approach will set the standard for the wealth management industry within the next decade.
The Evolution of Value has expanded beyond Financial Value (Investment Planning) and Intellectual Value (Financial Planning).
Our team provides education, consulting and community for advisors to provide a more comprehensive practice.
The future belongs to advisors & wealth management
firms who help their clients discover & achieve
what’s most important to them.
An experiential and meaningful planning process is required
Shifts in mindset, demographics and desired outcomes are requiring advisors to provide more value.
Clients expect more personalized and tailored financial advice and investment solutions. More importantly, clients are desiring engagement and understanding on how their financial plans connect to a more successful and meaningful life.
In addition, wealth transfer and multi-generational planning, the rise of millennial and Gen Z investors, and digital transformation continues to impact the industry. Advisors, now more than ever, need to demonstrate critical comprehensive planning.
