In the wealth management arena, firms that are driven to deliver a constant uptick of growth often emphasize the concept of “scalability” at the expense of “customer focus.” To scale their businesses, these firms take on many clients and scramble to service them. As a result, many processes with deep client impact—such as asset allocation or portfolio construction—may be automated or replicated, resulting in missed opportunities, sub-optimal performance, or worse.
Some wealth management firms, too, push their own investment products, or emphasize the availability of other products, such as credit or corporate finance, over the core disciplines of financial planning and investment management.
