In the last post I discussed my decision to move from traditional, human financial advisor to newer, fancier, more efficient robo-advisor. The reduced fees will help me save thousands on my investments in the long-term, with no loss in service quality. And I’m not the only one making this type of change.
Currently, only a relatively “small” portion of assets ($53 billion) can be attributed to robo-advisors. But that amount is projected to be closer to $7 trillion — 35% of current total invested assets — within the next decade. Clearly, conventional investing firms have something to be concerned about.
