Robo-advisor vs Your Relationship Manager
Written by AQUMON Team on 2021-09-24
The term “Robo-advisor” has been floating around a lot lately with financial institutions launching different types of digitized financial services. But do you really know what it means? Simply put, a robo-advisor is a digital financial advisor that provides financial advice or manages investments with minimal human intervention. The platform allows you to invest in various portfolios through processing vast amounts of data and analytics. The risk quiz helps evaluate your risk appetite and makes appropriate suggestions. But why robo-advisors? Keep reading to find out!
Accessible:
Access to private wealth management is rare which is where robo-advisors come into the picture. Instead of putting wealth management on a pedestal, robo-advisors are now revolutionizing the perception of wealth management for the common man. With an internet connection being the only necessity, robo-advisors can take care of your investments for you without the hassle of going through traditional financial advisors. In essence, you’re getting your wealth managed at a much lower cost with ensured transparency, a user-friendly interface as well as a whole library of information which you can devour to your liking. You can finally take control of your finances all by yourself.
Free of Human Bias:
Human bias can get the best of even the most skilled financial professionals. According to a research paper conducted by American University Washington D.C. and Washington & Lee University, financial advisors often have various types of psychological biases, such as overconfidence, herding, disposition, gender, confirmation, and excessive optimism. Issues like chasing commissions and meeting goals can sometimes lead product advisors to give misaligned advice which can be detrimental to your investment journey. An AI-based robo-advisor, however, uses data and algorithms to evaluate the portfolios for the investor. All decisions are data-based and free of emotions. This feature makes it unprejudiced and free from bias.
Is Robo-advisor for you?
Definitely!
Robo-advisors leverage algorithms and big data to make investments smarter. If you are someone who is working in a desk job from 9am till 6pm or someone who is new in the game without much investment experience and feeling overwhelmed from market information, then Robo-advisor will be your best friend in your investment journey!
