Investing solutions that help businesses stay ahead

In an age where digital innovation challenges every cornerstone of traditional finance, robo advisory technology promised a revolution that could democratise wealth management and transform the face of private banking. Yet, this anticipated seismic shift has taken a more complex and nuanced trajectory.

The limited space and time available during the in-app onboarding of clients creates a real challenge for roboadvisors. Collecting objective facts about investors is one thing. Understanding how they feel about risk is something completely different. It requires a scientifically sound methodology combined with an engaging user experience that sets the tone for a long and fruitful relationship.

Luckily there is a known path for such players to diversify & secure their revenue sources. In this perspective paper, Investsuite CEO Bart Vanhaeren explores the merits and issues related to adding a robo advisory offer to the product menu.
