As Betterment’s Director of Behavioral Science, Dan Egan knows that understanding human behavior is key to your client’s financial success.

But knowing that’s true and knowing what to do about it are two different things.

There are a lot of opinions thrown around in the behavioral finance space on what works and what doesn’t.

And you probably don’t want to “test” some of these ideas on clients you hope to work with for 10-30 years.

For years, Dan has been testing behavioral finance interventions to figure out what actually works (and what is a waste of time).

In this episode, he reveals proven ideas you can implement to enhance your client’s outcomes without having to go through your own trial-and-error process.
