Evolving Customers Needs
- Post-COVID, HNWIs demand for self-directed tools and hybrid advisory
- HNWIs expect an ecosystem of personalized offerings from WM firms
- Demand for a digital asset investment strategy and its education is on the rise
- Awareness on sustainable investments is increasing; education and actions are the next steps
New Growth Opportunities
- Rise of emerging segments like Women, Millennials, LGBTQ+ Families, and Mass Affluent
- With 1,000+ unicorns globally, the special category of Tech-Wealth
- Next-gen HNWIs have started to inherit a large portion of family wealth through the ongoing “Great Wealth Transfer”
New Way of Doing Business
- Customer satisfaction with WM products and services has taken a hit, affecting firm’s NPS
- Collaboration with the ecosystem to build embedded wealth management solutions
- Firms need to reconsider their advisor strategy by building data-driven digital capabilities and setting up diverse talent pool
- 73% Tech-wealth HNWIs switched their primary WM firm after crossing the $1 million threshold, primarily due to lack of an attractive product portfolio, low digital maturity, and poor customer experience.
Tech-wealth HNWI preferences and behaviors
- Prefer to conduct transactions on their own- 76%
- Actively managed personalized investment strategies – 71%
- Prefer an advisor with a matching socio-demographic profile – 66%

- Want a purely virtual advisory to guide their investment decisions – 51%
Conclusion:
- Influential new segments (women, LGBTQ+, and mass affluent) – Clients increasingly ask for digital-first engagement and seamless experience
- A challenging investment environment, rising risk costs to investors, uncertain global equity markets, diminishing interest rates, and unsteady real-estate prices make it harder for WM firms to generate superior investment performance for their clients.
- Increasing regulatory burdens, new business models, and overwhelming competition from non-traditional players (BigTechs, WealthTechs, and others)
A four-dimensional strategy :
- Embrace new human-centric business models that drive WM firms to become customer-first organizations
- Build an inclusive client ecosystem to capture newly evolved customer segments.
- Enhance advisor capabilities through actionable data analysis, flexible technology, streamlined workflow activities, and digital tools
- Adopt a one-stop-shop approach to cater to customers across their financial and non-financial services needs.
