(intelliflo) Robo advisors have been a wealth management staple for over a decade, but they struggle to provide the same quality and breadth of advice when compared to human advisors. Human advisors persistently outshine algorithms when it comes to clear communication, breadth of services and keeping investors on-track to meet their goals, even as artificial intelligence and automation captures the public imagination.
