Overview

Fee pressures and the ubiquity of information on funds and other investment product have put the onus on the asset management wholesaler to serve in an advisory capacity, rather than one focused on sales. Portfolio analytics tools enable the wholesaler to support the wealth management advisor before the client sale. As such, these tools offer wholesalers a means to increase their influence in the face of industry trends to commoditization.
