Client approved marketing and sales materials and tools are an important aspect of value-add support offered by firms that distribute through financial advisors. Asset managers, insurance companies, broker-dealers, and other sources devote considerable resources to creating content and capabilities that advisors can use directly with individual investors. Client approved resources are among the most useful value add programs used by advisors.
It is with this context that Practical Perspectives, a leading consulting and research firm, examines client approved support from the distinct perspective of financial advisors. This new 99 page, 75 exhibit report builds on prior studies and offers detailed, data driven observations and trends related to the impact of these resources, characteristics of leading materials and tools, the providers used most widely, preferred formats, enhancements desired by advisors, and the subjects of most interest for future client approved support.
