Dan Mercurio, CRO of SigFig is helping people achieve their life goals, aspirations, and ambitions by innovating financial services

Managing your finances is simplified when services like cash management and financial planning or advice are all in one place. Technology makes consolidating these services easier and can help advisors and clients improve their ability to make informed decisions through data-driven insights. Tech adoption still remains an uphill battle, as many retail banks are still using outdated technologies and wealth management firms are facing widespread challenges with tech integration. This means that bankers and wealth managers are commonly undeserving their clients and missing out on opportunities to create a lasting impact on their financial portfolio. Recent studies indicate that many investors prefer digital or remote correspondence with their advisors, and some of them even prefer digital-only advice. Convenience and control are among the top must-haves for clients when selecting a firm to manage their financial portfolio. Many wealth management firms are looking to appeal to younger, mass-affluent clients by taking a serious look at their digital engagement tactics in hopes to strengthen the client-advisor relationships. Now, more than ever, technology is a key factor in managing the relationship between the end user and financial institutions. It doesn’t stop there – tech doesn’t just benefit investors, it can lead to major wins for advisors too. Saving time on filing paperwork, data entry, and profile building are all ways that automated tools can enable advisors to better serve clients and help them meet their financial goals.

Partnering with a fintech provider can benefit the end user and the advisor, as well as the financial institution. Technology is a necessary complement to the advisor-client relationship, strengthening the communication and helping to build long-term viability for financial institutions offering these advisory services. Firms like SigFig provide an Integrated Financial Advice & Service Ecosystem, offering a complete set of digital wealth solutions for mass affluent clients as well as screen-based collaboration solutions for consistent services delivery. SigFig is one such company that innovates best-in-class financial technology focused on putting the customer at the center of the financial services experience.
