I have a personal finance confession. At the beginning of last year, I turned over one of our Fidelity Investments accounts to their Robo-Advisor as a part of Fidelity GO. We have a professional managed account, too, as well as a personally managed account. At the end of last year, the Artificial Intelligent Robo-Advisor had a better return than the other accounts, which were within 1% of each other. đWhat a conundrum! Having professional financial management is almost always the way to go and I'm not sure I wasn't sticking to this advice by going the Robo route.Is anyone else having a good experience with AI investing?As a disclaimer, I'm sure that an argument could be made that the Robo Advisor was interested in short-term returns where (maybe) a human manager could be aiming for sustained, less volatile returns. One way to see if this is true is to "let it ride" with the Robo Advisor in 2024!#DangerWillRobinson #lifeinsurance #AIinvesting #RoboAdvisor

How many APIs does it take to change a lightbulb.I was chatting with someone last week. Talking about building a new Robo-advisor for them. âSurely it is just straight forward. A few screens. Connect to broker and thatâs that.â And in that one sentence lies all the challenges of WealthTech.The idea is simple. It's just a few screens. Connecting to broker is trivial.With this perception many Startups and Financial Institutions set off on the Robo-advisor adventure only to find it is harder than they thought. And they actually have no real idea of what they are building or all the things needed to make it work.They get six months in and realise they donât have the right âRSP APIâ. Or they didnât have the events calendar API configured correctly. Or the retirement goal calculator doesnât adapt dynamically. If you donât know what any of these are you should not build a Robo yourself. Think of it like a car. You donât need to know how it works to drive it. And Iâll assume you would not set out to build one yourself. (If you could, more props to you). The car feels very simple. Get in. Press the go pedal. It goes. The stop pedal does its thing.Thatâs that. Under the hood is a phrase for a reason. What's under the hood of WealthTech. A lot.A robo lets you invest. The go pedal. Or stop investing. The stop pedal.Under the hood are APIâs. Each of them does its thing. Pain staking epic elf work to make the stop and go pedal do their thing.So next time you are using a Robo-advisor. And it's seamless and easy to use. Have a think how many APIâs it takes to make it work. And marvel at the magic.Wealth is digital. And long may it get better.* This is from my WealthTech Wednesday newsletter that goes to 10,000 subscribers every week. If you would like to join DM me or go to Bambu dot com to sign up.

Everyone loves a bargain. My mom always said "free" was her favorite price. As a kid, that makes sense but is free really good for us?Dan Ariely, in Predictably Irrational, wrote about experiments testing the idea that we make suboptimal decisions when facing the prospect of getting something for free. He looked at chocolate but I want to look at brokerage services.About a decade ago Robinhood was launched offering free trading. A few years later they gained traction causing a ripple through the big brokers like Schwab and Fidelity who reduced their trading fees to zero. Now, I'm not going to argue that paying trading fees is a good thing. However, like free checking accounts at your regional bank, something has to give. These companies are not providing services to the general public for free. They have costs that must be covered and a profit margin to hit. Instead of a transparent fee that is controllable by the investor (how frequently they trade), now there are "hidden" fees in bid-ask spreads, larger interest spreads on deposits and sweep accounts, etc.Additionally, free trading commissions entice people to trade more frequently, which is often detrimental to a portfolio's health. Fidelity Investments analyzed client accounts and found that "the investor accounts that were completely forgotten about by their account holders ended up with the best performance."Beware of free.https://lnkd.in/giYh6vdk

Investing in the markets is not my full-time job, but I really like it as a hobby. The problem is the best resources like Bloomberg and CapIQ cost tens of thousands of dollars per year (EACH!). Over the last few years, I've tried to find a good alternative that isn't nearly as expensive as Bloomberg or CapIQ. Today, I feel confident saying that I have. It's a combination of 3 apps, and the best part is they all offer a FREE tier (I pay $0 right now). Here's an overview of the apps and how I use them:https://lnkd.in/gYz29sNgCC: TIKR.com Quartr Finviz

For years, I've been crafting spreadsheets to split group expenses among friends, predating apps like #Splitwise. But optimizing IOU transactions to "settle the bill" was always a missing piece... Now, thanks to #CoPilot, I generated code to streamline individual payments as well. Works like a charm! Motivation: the 4 expense/day limit in Splitwise's free version and the reluctance to burden everyone with yet another app like #TriCount. đ Sharing a link to #googlesheets seems more practical and expense entry is easier.V2 also supports fractional sharing ("kids' tickets are half price"), and can be easily enhanced to handle many expenses and payers. V3 will include multiple payers for the same expense. Comment if you're interested in a link or more info. Happy to share and learn. #genai (image below is for payments across 9 uneven groups with 25 unequal members)

Are Robo-Advisors going to take over the Wealth Management Service Industryâ This is a topic of great debate and concern for Financial Advisors & Wealth Managers Well...in my view this is the classic 'Man Vs. Machine ' debate that is now very 'normal' in virtually every industry, not just Financial Services.. Here are some interesting stats .. âșGoogle Search for 'Robo-Advisors' (done today) gave: About 2,510,000 results (0.39 seconds) âșAbout 100 Robo-Advisors (online services sites) in 15 countries âșForecast of $2.2 to $3.7 Trillion Asset Under Management (AuM) by 2021 & whooping $16 Trillion by 2025 ...WOW.. So the big question is what does this mean for 'Financial Advisors & Wealth Managers'? Is it an opportunity & Threat..? Yes...the answer will depend on 'YOU' Any Advancement in the world such as Tech innovation, really brings the FOCUS on 'Value' and clears up the clutter.. â For Low Value Advisor = This is Death â For High Value Advisor = This is Massive Opportunity Hope this helps.. visit www.advisorlearn.com for more info and help. #fintello #advisorlearn #advisoralgorithm #investing #moneymanagement #financialplanning #financialgoals #returnoninvestment #fiduciary #retirementsavings #retirementplanning #highnetworthindividuals #millennials #valueinvesting #wealthmanagement #robotics #robohelp
