This document discusses using technology to improve efficiencies and reduce costs in financial advising. It reports the results of surveys of financial advisors on their current use of technology. The surveys found that advisors enter the same client data into an average of four separate systems. Respondents felt that integrating systems could significantly reduce costs and improve productivity. However, many advisors are not realizing these benefits due to systems that do not communicate with each other and the costs of transitioning to new technologies. The document proposes using technology to improve client access to documentation and valuations or to enable new forms of customer engagement.
