For decades, the financial world focused on investments. But, eventually, that focus shifted to planning. It wasn't just about the “what” of investing but the “why”. This evolution changed wealth management, and represents a move away from a one-size-fits-all strategy and toward a more flexible, client-driven approach.

In this episode, Jack talks with Robbie Cannon, a Board Member at Founders Financial. He is also the Founder of Horizon Investments and a Board Member of the Money Management Institute (MMI). With a background in quantitative finance and goals-based investment strategies, Robbie has made Horizon a leader in the industry. His passion for innovation and client outcomes has driven his success as a leader and influencer in the wealth management sector.

Robbie talks with Jack about how he built Horizon Investments from the ground up, the evolution of goals-based investing, and the importance of personalized advice. Robbie also shares his latest venture with Thrive by Money Management Institute, and how AI, blockchain, and quantitative finance is driving a new era of financial planning.
