Ric Edelman: The Truth about Your Future

The replay is eligible one IMCA® CE credit

Despite women’s rising economic power, many female clients face financial discrimination. The gender wage gap, the lack of funding for women entrepreneurs, and the “pink tax” levied on many products and services makes it challenging for these clients to accumulate wealth at the same rate as their male counterparts. 

Money silence just makes this bad situation worse. 

These women need savvy advisors to teach them “money talk” skills so they can stop paying such a high price for their gender. 

In this webinar presentation, Kathleen Burns Kingsbury explains why the cost of money silence is especially high for women and offers practical strategies advisors can use to empower these clients to negotiate more and pay less. 

Attend and discover: 
•The high price women (and their families) pay for money silence 
•Common myths about women and money that could be costing you business 
•Practical strategies for teaching women negotiation skills 
•How joining the Breaking Money Silence® Revolution makes good business sense

All participants receive a bonus chapter, “Is Your Gender Costing You A Fortune?” from Breaking Money Silence: How To Shatter Money Taboos, Talk More Openly, and Live a Richer Life, to be published September 30, 2017.

Kathleen will answer attendees’ questions during the session and will be available to continue the discussion on APViewpoint.

Is Your Client’s Gender Costing Her a Fortune?

Any financial expert willing to invest time and effort into developing and sharing their wisdom can become an online financial influencer in whatever niche suits you best.

•Separates you from other advisors
•Enhances the value of your firm’s offering
•Makes you more attractive to your ideal prospect
•Fits in your marketing strategy

10 Reasons Advisors Should Podcast

Provisions of the DOL’s fiduciary rule went into effect on June 9, but the controversy over its impact on advisors and clients continues. In this live, Munk-style debate moderated by Bob Huebscher, Tom and Knut will take opposing sides on the following proposition:

The benefits to investors and society of implementing the DOL fiduciary rule far outweigh the costs

Knut will speak in favor of this proposition, while Tom will argue against it, covering issues such as:
•Should the decision to work with an advisor who adheres to the fiduciary standard or the suitability standard be left to investors, rather than the government?
•Will the rule create administrative burdens and liability risks that will discourage advisors from serving retirement clients?
•Will registered representatives moving from commission-based to fee-based compensation no longer be willing to take on clients with smaller pools of retirement assets?

Knut and Tom will answer attendees’ questions during the session and will be available to continue the discussion on APViewpoint.

Is investment portfolio design becoming commoditized as countless articles, papers, and blogs say? If this process merely involves measuring risk tolerance and recommending a model portfolio the answer is “Yes.”

But there’s a better way to design investment portfolios. It starts by recognizing that risk perception isn’t static and that knowledgeable clients make better investment decisions. In this presentation, Christopher will:
•Provide a framework for a collaborative, educational design process that gives clients greater awareness of their own risk tolerance, a truly customized portfolio, and a higher level of confidence in their decisions;  
•Explain how to incorporate client behavioral risks such as “frame of reference risk” into portfolio construction; and
•Discuss sophisticated tools that make this process more interactive and engaging.
Christopher will answer attendees’ questions during the webinar and will be available to continue the discussion on APViewpoint.
