If the way that you’re testing hasn’t already transformed dramatically, it will soon. And the pace and scope of disruption will continue to escalate throughout the fo

Over the next 50 years, more than $41 trillion in assets will be transferred from one generation to another. The non-profit Center on Wealth and Philanthropy sets the bar even higher--$58.1 trillion by 2061. Whatever the final figure, the generational shift of wealth represents an extraordinary opportunity for financial advisers.

We are entering a new era in financial services, and there is a massive opportunity on the horizon. Some $2 trillion1 in wealth will change hands in the next five years, with $30 trillion being shifted in the next 30 to 40 years. What exactly does this mean for financial advisors?

Based on responses from more than 1,100 adults who currently have investments, the research found the wave of millennials (ages 18-34) entering the market is not only putting pressure on financial advisors to use newer technologies in managing their money, but also pushing even Gen Xers (ages 35-54) and baby boomers (ages 55+) toward more modern financial tools, such as modeling on mobile devices or online portfolio rebalancing.

In the next five years, more than $2 trillion is expected to transfer between generations. To capitalize on this massive redistribution of wealth, financial advisors need to meet the demands of today’s clients who are social, mobile, more connected, better informed and looking to collaborate with their advisors when they want, where they want. In fact, according to the Salesforce Connected Investor report, 55% of investors want to work more closely with their advisors. To succeed, advisors must have relationships with their clients that are deeper than just the numbers, and focus on individuals and their unique needs.
