In our ongoing mission to enhance the advisor-client dynamic, our previous Evolution of Advice research laid the groundwork for understanding key client preferences for advice delivery and what tactics contributed most to client satisfaction. We focused on pinpointing where advisors and clients align and how technology can be leveraged to exceed client expectations.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fast forward to today, and our newest study, “Planning Better Together,” builds on these insights. This research highlights the top “tech actions” that you, as a forward-thinking advisor, can implement to foster a truly collaborative client experience. We conducted a comprehensive online survey including 654 financial professionals and over 1,200 consumers, ranging from those already working with advisors to potential clients planning to engage within the year.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This study offers clear, practical steps to strengthen your client partnerships by focusing on opportunities for tighter collaboration.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Key Findings<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Opportunity and Willingness:<\/span><\/b> Approximately 50 percent of the market is either currently working with a financial professional or intends to within the next year, showcasing a strong demand for financial advice.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Importance of Collaboration:<\/span><\/b> Seventy-eight percent of consumers want to be actively involved in the financial planning process, emphasizing the need for collaborative relationships between advisors and clients.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      • Top Collaborative Actions:<\/span><\/b> We identified the top five collaborative actions within financial planning technology that most significantly enhance client engagement and understanding.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • Client Portal Usage:<\/span><\/b> Consistent use of a client portal promotes better trust, motivation, and overall satisfaction by integrating communication, task management, and financial monitoring.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
          • Advantages of Collaborative Planning:<\/span><\/b> Collaborative planning enhances communication, facilitates goal achievement, provides personalized experiences, builds trust, motivates clients, and demonstrates advisor value.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Market Opportunity and The Importance of Collaboration<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

            The financial advisory market is ripe with opportunity, as approximately half the market is either working with a financial professional currently or plans to work with a financial professional within the next year. This indicates a robust willingness to invest in financial advice, underlining its perceived value.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            An interesting finding in our study is that the biggest market opportunity today actually lies with Millennials and Gen Z, as they most frequently reported working with an advisor or planning to in the coming year.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            \"Desire<\/span><\/p>\n

            Collaboration plays a vital role in the planning process for these clients, especially when using comprehensive financial planning software. A significant 78 percent of consumers express a desire to be actively involved in the process of financial planning. Advisors who can effectively collaborate with clients, in the way that clients want, can ensure better outcomes and higher satisfaction. In fact, 93 percent of highly collaborative advisors have gotten referrals from their existing clients, compared to just 60 percent of less collaborative advisors.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            To capitalize on the existing market opportunity, financial professionals must understand the ways in which clients want to collaborate with them, and have the technology in place to facilitate this collaboration.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            Top Five Collaborative Activities Identified<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

            Collaborative planning is all about clients and advisors working together on financial planning activities, either inside planning software or outside of it. This joint effort enhances the planning process, allowing clients to be actively involved and informed at every stage. But not every collaborative activity is the same.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            Our research pinpointed five essential activities where client demand for collaboration is outpacing advisors frequency of conducting these activities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

            The Five Key Collaborative Activities<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n
              \n
            1. Comparing Plan Options and Stress Testing:<\/span><\/b> This involves assessing various plan options to help clients visualize their preferred future, as well as conducting monte carlo analyses to ensure the plan\u2019s resiliency.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
            2. Analyzing the Current Course of Action:<\/span><\/b> Here, advisors and clients review the current plan to confirm it’s on track to meet long-term goals.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
            3. Demonstrating Scenarios and Competing Actions:<\/span><\/b> By showing different scenarios and the impact of various choices, clients can see how their decisions shape their financial future.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
            4. Reviewing Assumptions and Estimates:<\/span><\/b> This step involves checking the assumptions and estimates behind the plan\u2019s recommendations to ensure accuracy and reliability.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
            5. Reviewing and Refining Recommendations:<\/span><\/b> This activity involves continuously analyzing potential alternative actions and strategies based on life changes and evolving market conditions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Why These Activities Are Important<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

              Peace of Mind<\/span><\/b>
              \nClients seek reassurance that they\u2019re going to be ok. Activities like comparing plan options, stress testing, and analyzing current actions provide this assurance. This process helps them understand how their choices impact their financial stability, directly addressing concerns about unforeseen disruptions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Confidence<\/span><\/b>
              \nClients want to understand their financial plans thoroughly. Reviewing assumptions and estimates used in recommendations gives them insight into the mechanics of their financial future. This transparency and clear explanations help alleviate anxiety about the unknown and build confidence in their financial strategy.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Financial Security<\/span><\/b>
              \nBy taking the time to review and refine recommendations, advisors show clients they are prepared for any scenario. This deepens trust and involvement in the financial journey, ensuring that clients feel secure knowing their future is safeguarded. This collaborative approach nurtures a sense of financial security, which is ultimately what clients seek\u2014preparation for whatever life may bring.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Empower yourself and your clients by embracing these collaborative activities, making financial planning a transparent, confident, and secure experience.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Benefits of Collaborative Planning<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

              Collaborative planning, where clients and advisors work closely together, offers a range of significant benefits. This partnership fosters an environment where clients are not just passive recipients but active participants in shaping their financial future.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Let\u2019s break down the high-level outcomes of engaging in key collaborative activities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Higher Satisfaction and Referrals<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Collaborative planning demonstrably leads to higher client satisfaction. More satisfied clients are more likely to refer their advisor to others, naturally expanding the advisor’s client base. This happens because clients feel connected to the process and see the value in shared decision-making.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Greater Understanding<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              When clients are actively involved and understand their financial planning, they are naturally more content. This engagement translates to a deeper comprehension of their financial situation, alleviating uncertainties and enhancing their peace of mind.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              More Security<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Moreover, clients feel more secure about their financial future when they understand how their plan will lead them towards their goals, significantly reducing their anxiety. Also, knowing that their plans have been stress-tested and refined gives them confidence that they are well-prepared for any eventuality.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Improved Loyalty and Trust<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Active collaboration combined with personalized advice strengthens client loyalty and trust. This relationship growth is key to long-term client retention and satisfaction. Clients who see their advisors as partners in their financial journey are more likely to stay the course and follow through with recommendations.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Better Client Outcomes<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Clients of highly collaborative advisors enjoy better financial stability and outcomes. These advisors’ dedication to involving clients in every step ensures that plans are not only well-crafted but also robust and responsive to life\u2019s changes.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

              Highly Collaborative Advisors See Many Benefits<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

              Highly collaborative advisors\u2014those who complete all five key activities\u2014represent just 19 percent of the industry but see markedly better outcomes:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              • They have a <\/span>33-point higher likelihood of receiving referrals<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                  \n
                • 61 percent<\/span><\/b> report their clients have peace of mind, compared to just 41 percent of all others.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                    \n
                  • 68 percent<\/span><\/b> say their clients have referred others to them, versus 51 percent of others.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                      \n
                    • 66 percent<\/span><\/b> provide highly personalized plans, compared to 50 percent of others.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                      By embracing a collaborative approach, you not only elevate the quality of your financial planning but also significantly boost client satisfaction, security, and loyalty. This hands-on, transparent method makes financial planning accessible, empowering both you and your clients to achieve optimal results together.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                      Client portals are an essential aspect of financial planning software that enable effective collaboration between advisors and clients. Using a client portal greatly improves several key outcomes:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                        • Motivation:<\/span><\/b> Access to real-time financial data boosts clients’ motivation to achieve their financial goals.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                            \n
                          • Satisfaction:<\/span><\/b> The portal enhances client satisfaction with their advisors, thanks to a more seamless and transparent experience.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                              \n
                            • Commitment:<\/span><\/b> Continuous access and communication through the portal deepen clients’ commitment to their advisory relationships.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
