Robo-advisors will not only become the preferred investment solution for retail clients but will also gain importance in the affluent and high-net-worth individual segments. Through cooperation with fintech companies or acquisition of innovative technology, robo-advice could become an increasingly important element for traditional banks and wealth managers.TOPICS: Wealth management, quantitative methods
