Lennick Aberman Behavioral Advice – We believe Behavioral Advice is a game changer as it relates to working with clients.  Behavioral Finance/Advice has existed for several years, working in conjunction with the field of traditional finance.  In brief, financial advice is based primarily on Nobel Prize-winning, modern portfolio theory. All learnings related to asset allocation, efficient frontier and model portfolios remain important. However, all are based on the premise that investors and consumers make rational decisions without bias and essentially will trade-off decisions based on risk and reward potential.  Behavioral Finance is the psychological angle on this topic. In theory, it's interesting to believe that everyone will behave rationally, but in reality, people frequently behave irrationally. Irrational behaviors are often stimulated by extreme emotions, either positive or negative.

Top 5 Benefits of Behavioral Advice:

  1. Training financial advisors to practice Behavioral Advice and deliver it to their clients is the biggest differentiator in the financial services industry today.
  2. Helping financial advisors manage their own emotions while helping their clients manage theirs during difficult market conditions will enable them to deliver superior client portfolio performance.
  3. Behavioral Advice training not only supports client satisfaction and retention but also impacts advisor satisfaction, retention and performance.
  4. Behavioral Advice will not replace financial planning. It will simply increase the effective usage of the financial plan by improving decision-making behavior.
  5. Financial advisors who develop their Behavioral Advice competencies will ultimately improve their leadership of staff, associates, clients and themselves.
