Advisers need to continuously work on closing the value gap and articulate the different components that underpin their advice to help clients understand the true value their adviser delivers. One area we see as a key opportunity for Advisers to showcase their value with their clients is in proactively managing a client’s investment tax experience.

Join Bronwyn Yates and Tanya Hoshek as they discuss insights about being tax savvy.

In this episode of the IFA Show, host Sarah Kendell is joined by Russell Investments head of wholesale partnerships Neil Rogan to discuss the fund manager's report on both the tangible and intangible aspects of value that advisers can deliver in their relationships with clients.

Neil also unpacks changing perceptions of the value of advice following the COVID crisis and how advisers can better incorporate the idea of value in their marketing and client engagement strategies going forward.

When you position your expertise and additional services to your clients, be intentional. Expertise in bringing a plan together and done correctly, is not a one-time step. It’s an ongoing process that keeps investors on track. How much is that worth?

 More than just return seeking, advisers are experienced at working with a client to closely identify their needs, with the ability to manage planned, unplanned or unforeseen expenditures. Advisers can help keep the portfolio invested where appropriate to grow assets for future spending needs and finding the best source and process for accessing capital on behalf of their clients when required. 

Join Bronwyn Yates and Tanya Hoshek as they discuss insights around cash drag.

We all know that this year has been a wild ride so far, and we’ve heard from advisers that they’ve recently delivered more value in this area than they have for some time.

Join Bronwyn Yates and Tanya Hoshek as they look at the behavioural mistakes that investors typically make and the value advisers provide in helping investors avoid those mistakes.

An integral part of financial planning is helping clients determine what proportion of household savings and investments should be invested in short, medium- or longer-term growth-oriented investments like stocks. 

Join Bronwyn Yates and Tanya Hoshek as they unpack our Value of an Adviser Report and focus on why appropriate asset allocation is so important for investors. 

Join Bronwyn Yates and Tanya Hoshek as they take you through our annual Value of an Adviser report 2020 which looks holistically at the real value advisers deliver for their clients—from the knowledge and expertise required to help clients implement appropriate portfolios, to the support they provide when market conditions change. 

We aim to quantify not just the technical capabilities an adviser provides, but also the emotional support and guidance they offer throughout a client’s investment journey. 

 Our report is designed to make it easier for advisers to demonstrate this to their clients.
