It’s important to strike a balance between AI and adviser capabilities.
International Adviser: Should advisers see AI as a threat to their business?
While some are embracing AI, others are skeptical about the future of the technology.
According to our CTO Zach Womack, “AI should not be seen as a threat to financial advisers but rather as a valuable tool that can augment their capabilities and provide enhanced services to clients. By embracing AI in their businesses, financial advisers can improve efficiency, accuracy, and personalization of their advice. The positives of AI in advice lie in its ability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and improve operational efficiency. Striking the right balance between human expertise and AI-powered insights is key to leveraging AI’s full potential for the benefit of both advisers and their clients.”
