When I saw this software in action, it made it seem very possible that investment advisors could be replaced by technology within ten years. It is a minority of a financial institution’s employees that create distrust with their investor clients. Many investors with substantial savings would rather keep the money in a bank savings account, where it loses 3.5% of its value each year to inflation, than entrusting it to a financial advisor. For investment advisor to stay relevant it would have to start with better screening of the investment advisors. A client wonders who is this stranger that says they are an investment advisor and want to help me? Can I trust them? In this podcast I suggest several ways that investors could possible again learn to trust advisors and the institutions they work for. Is it possible for the industry to change?
