Investment Management

At the core of a financial advisor’s job is the due diligence, and fiduciary responsibility of managing your client’s financial assets. Advisors are expected to perform this critical activity along with a growing list of other duties being heaped on by regulators and competitive pressures.Problems surrounding Asset Management

  • Asset management has been the focus of much regulatory scrutiny and fines.
  • Retail pricing pressures on asset management have increased exponentially
  • Third party outsourcing has become less practical and more expensive.
  • Global markets have become increasingly complex, discipline in the investment process is critical
  • Securities selection, required due diligence, and management of client portfolios take time away from working with your clients, weakening relationships and making your best clients vulnerable to competitors.
  • Understanding and modifying risk is playing a more critical role to asset allocation and modeling requiring more time, and more tools
