Dec 04, 2019

NEW YORK, Dec. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Xtiva has compiled a collection of insights from 20 top WealthTech and finance industry influencers identifying trends that wealth management firms and advisors should pay attention to in 2020 and beyond.

Key insights identified in the WealthTech Trends 2020 report include:

  • AI and data-driven technologies will remodel advice, powering scalable and ultra-efficient money management and goal planning, while shifting human advisors up the advice stack.
  • Holistic planning, supported by deeply integrated tools, will become the foundation of advice and guidance, and regardless of the delivery modality, will accelerate the collapse of non-customer centric silos.
  • Technology will empower the Enabled Customer, who will demand more collaborative wealth management relationships.
  • Scalable, integrated digital wealth platforms will open new markets and render old business models obsolete.
  • New digital asset classes, trading platforms and intelligent tools will radically expand the ways and means to invest.

“Digital technology is changing virtually everything about our financial lives – how we pay, how we save and invest, but also how we get help and advice,” says Tom Moysak, CEO of Xtiva. “With so much change occurring at a rapid pace, it’s critical for financial services businesses to find ways to use data to better understand where they need to head and how to get there.”
