(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.
We believe tech-enabled human advisors offer clients the best way forward, because robo advisors tend to underserve investors.
• Human advisors are able to better connect with their clients, providing more relatable communication and nuanced insights into the achievement of financial goals and objectives.
• The reassurance and support offered by human advisors helps their clients stick with their financial plan during periods of market volatility.
• Human advisors can provide the transparency and breadth of investment options clients demand.
• Human-provided advice is best equipped to navigate complicated tax and estate scenarios; these same tasks overwhelm even the most advanced algorithmic advice.
