Wealth management remains a somewhat unexplored sector with great
potential to play a vital role in the financial state of customers. The major
players consider wealth management as a lucrative opportunity to become a
central part of customers’ lives and offer them personalized services,
tech-savvy solutions, and sound financial advice.
Wealth management is a form of investment advising service that helps in
investing and financial planning to meet the demand of high-net-worth
customers. It covers formulating plans to meet certain financial goals over
time, retirement planning, estate & legal planning, and accounting &
tax services. Moreover, it offers a personalized approach to customers in managing
their wealth.
Future of wealth management
The wealth management industry is evolving, driven by the integration of
technology and the presence of a financially mature millennial generation. Thus,
the business model of the future is changing.
Today’s customers have different goals and preferences than their previous
generation. The majority of new banking business with customers between the age
of 16 to 39 is being conducted completely on the internet. The advent of
robo-advisors and digital transformation changing the dynamics of wealth
management, especially in developing regions such as the Asia-Pacific.
According to Allied Market Research, the Asia-Pacific wealth management
market is expected to
reach $811.50 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 12.7% from 2021 to 2030.
Increase in digitalization of wealth management services and increased
importance of customer loyalty as a result of the use of digital channels for
wealth management have boosted the market growth.
In the coming years, robo-advisors would play a major role in wealth
management. Investment automation technology has gained importance over the
years as it is powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that can analyze a colossal
amount of data than any human can ever do. What’s more, robo-advisors would
assist human advisors to improve and augment their functions. However, the
technology is currently in its infancy, but it has already shown its potential.
But it has a long way to go to replace human advisory services completed.
Apart from this, the financial service industry is becoming more and
more opaque. While investors have a greater ability to understand their risks,
returns, commissions, and total fees. However, in the future, in order to
attract clients, advisors will provide more comprehensive financial planning. This
refers to investing more time in helping customers to achieve their financial
goals, minimizing their taxes, managing their cash flow, and maximizing their
real estate values.
Having said that, wealth management would be completely digital. Innovation
and advanced technology have made their way into the finance sector. From
smartphones to robo-advisors, every aspect of wealth management will soon be
digital contrary to the current analog system. Thus, leading companies will
invest in cutting-edge technology to offer their customers improved service and
improve the overall user experience. As convenience and personalization are
key, companies will certainly invest in digitization to win over clients
regardless of their net worth.
Technology is the only way forward for wealth management companies in
this cut-throat financial landscape. The communication between financial
establishments and the customer will improve with the use of virtual channels
and digitization. It is only a matter of time when clients trust the advice of
robo-advisors as firmly as human advisors.
