Close Your Knowledge Gaps and Add Value With Clients
The 2026 Advisor Expertise Study from The American College of Financial Services demonstrates many truths, but one above all: years of experience is no guarantee of expertise in increasingly in-demand, specialized areas of planning.
We’ve seen before that financial planners add more client value than investment managers across market cycles, and that specialists can provide strategies and solutions that put them leagues ahead of the competition. But many clients say they’re still unsatisfied with the level of service they receive from their advisor, even when those advisors have been in the business for decades. It’s time to change the narrative.
