About this event
We all know how access to investment is becoming increasingly democratized for retail investors, thanks to the rise of digital. But many retail investors fall prey to behavioral biases and make poor investment decisions. In principle, financial advisors can help their clients navigate complex savings and investment decisions.
But do they?
- Do financial advisors help their clients to achieve better performance?
- Do they minimize their investment biases?
- And are the major benefits of having a financial advisor?
During this webinar, Prof. Alessandro Previtero will explore these questions based on the findings from 3 of his recent publications. His conclusions could have profound welfare implications for households but also for the investment industry.
