Study on ETFs, Mutual Funds, Robo Advisory & Regulation

Download the ETF study (German)

By the end of 2016, we surveyed German wealth managers on ETFs and mutual funds (UCITS). A major part of the conversations focused on challenges the wealth managers are facing on their sales side. Plans to reach clients and potentials over online channels and how Robo Advisory could be part of a solution, were among the topics covered.

We found that wealth managers who invest with ETFs can be separated into two groups that differ by how they select and trade ETFs, among other things. For one group, the substitution of mutual funds by ETFs seems to have reached a level of saturation while the other group focuses on ETFs nearly exclusively.

Pressure on margins, regulation and the demand from clients for transparent online portfolios are the major topics, wealth managers and other financial intermediaries are forced to deal with. Standardization and automation of processes, even of individually tailored portfolios can be part of a solution. For and together with a wealth manager we have developed a digital growth strategy and a pricing model that minimizes cannibalization. The solution supports growth in assets and client base while at the same time allows for price discrimination.    Download Case Study
