The idiosyncratic nature of advisory services technology simply establishes that technological complexity is self imposed by each delivery platform in the absence of simplifying standards for advisory services.

Each firm has its own take on technology, which by design falls short of what is required by statute for expert standing but is sufficient for broker/dealers not held to the fiduciary standard or lay technologist who do not understand how to make expert high level expert advice scalable.

If the question is how to make expert advice safe, scalable, easy to execute and manage as a high margin business at the advisor level where the advisor has control over their value proposition, cost structure, margins and professional standing—it would look nothing like advice products so pervasive today.

Advice is not a product which is sold but an expert prudent process that is managed. This requires extraordinary skill, not encouraged by a brokerage format.

Tim,

Congrats on saying out loud what we’ve all been saying under our breaths for the past 18 months – somebody had to do it ;-)

Cheers

Why do you print this. The comments in the article are pure speculation and highlight how little the “Industry Experts” know about the industry. Tim, is Advent going to be a custodian because they purchased Black Diamond for $70 million and already had APX? Well done.

Great job Envestnet … iSectors appreciates your innovations. These are the kind of strategic moves that have helped us, cost effectively, serve the needs of HNW clients and grow our AUM. I see Tamarac with Envestnet as a cost effective way (i.e) without a huge upfront cost, for small and mid-size RIAs to competitively meet the needs of institutional clients.
