WHY DO WE STILL NEED FINANCIAL ADVISORS?

We became our own travel agents, insurance brokers, now we are learning to use our cell phones to triage our own bodies.

A solid financial plan is not a matter of drag and drop.

Pete Smith: Jim, I’ve just taken my first job with a 401(k) plan. I’ve shared my retirement plan with you. I know you understand this stuff. Can you have a look?

Jim Smith [Brother]: You’re doing the right thing by starting to save now. Make sure you find out about the other investment options in your plan, though. Right now, your contributions are going into a money fund. Also, you should think about saving for Robbie’s college education, too.

Pete Smith: Where can I find out about that?

Jim Smith [Brother]: My broker, @George.Jones, set up the accounts for my kids. Friend him and he can tell you how it works.

George Jones [Advisor]: Happy to help. You should consider your state’s 529 plan so your contributions will be tax-deductible. Start saving $200 each month, and you can increase it with your raise next year.

Engagement is value for the advisor.

SOCIAL FINANCE OPTIMIZES ADVICE

!   I know right away when my client’s plans change.

!   I see their whole financial picture.

!   I have many more opportunities to bring value to the relationship.

Model 3

THE

ALGOVISOR

MY FINANCIAL ADVISOR IS AN ALGORITHM

!   I am mobile and social. !   I accept my data being

collected and used if it serves me.

!   I have no time or motivation to become an expert in investing.

Choices, choices, choices…

Find the best IRA and plan my retirement? See what people are tweeting #SXSW?

SO HOW CAN AN ALGORITHM HELP ME?

By being ubiquitous yet unobtrusive.

Advice is based on data.

AN AUTOMATIC FINANCIAL ADVISOR

!   I don’t want to learn about investing.

!   I don’t have time to manage my plan.

!   I trust the Algovisor that knows more about me than any financial advisor ever would.

“Because investing is very individual and personal”

SO MANY ALGORITHMS ALREADY DO

The advisor needs to know my life, my goals, my finances.

They know more than I would tell my financial advisor.

The all seeing Algovisor

The Algovisor uses MY interface

Sylke, you cancelled your trip to Australia. I am going to move the funds we set aside for that into your xyz account. Okay?

I will allocate the funds according to our current portfolio model. Do you want to review the trades I am proposing before I buy?

Yes

Sure

Great. I sent them to the Algovisor App, along with some details about the individual funds.

OK

Thank you for coming
