THE MESSAGE IS SIMPLE !§ Trust has been lost and the digital world is here.
§ The Technology Sector - Two issues – (1) Potentially preparing to take away our clients, and (2) building very high client expectations.
§ Successful relationships with customers in the digital world are high-trust relationships.
§ It is time for financial advisors to rebuild trust at the same time as developing all the communications and analytical advantages of digital technology. There is no other way.
§ The highly digitalized, non-bank competitors are already taking the best parts of banking, will soon take other parts of the financial industry. Retail General Insurance is substantially moved to the digital world. Time is short. Is Apple about to join the fray? Is Amazon? Is Facebook? {Or is it the telecom industry?}
!
Trust has been lost and the digital world is taking over.

ZERO MOMENT OF TRUTH
Traditional Purchase Process Traditionally, there have been three critical junctures within a customer’s purchase process where product must be successful: stimulus, shelf, experience
Semulus
This is the moment when an advertisement/knowledge connects with a consumer in such a way that pushes him or her to visit a start the discussion.
Second Moment of Truth
Experience
(Experience) - Once home with the product, the consumer uses it and forms an opinion of his or her purchase.
First Moment of Truth
At shelf In-‐store
The consumer, driven by an advertisement or knowledge, visits your office and the combination of product packaging and salesperson claims, results in a purchase.

HNW – What do they look for ?
§ HNWI focus on wealth preservation
§ The preference for a single point of advice and service is strong.
§ HNWIs perceive their wealth management needs to be “straightforward” (focused on investments, cash, and credit)
§ The current demand for digital channels is robust globally, especially for HNWIs below 40 years of age.
Highlight from the 2013 Global HNW Insight Survey
HNWI Trust & Confidence § Wealth Manager competency emerged as the single
largest service priority among HNWIs, with 67.5% rating it as most important.
§ Asset Allocation: HNWIs exhibited a clear bias toward safety and wealth preservation, allocating nearly 30% of their financial wealth into cash and deposits.

Asset Allocation

immense, confidence in regulatory institutions is particularly low. As we discuss in our Industry Spotlight (see page 28), the increasing regulatory burden has the potential to drive significant industry change, with material impacts for both firms and clients.
While wealth management firms will continue to face challenges in cementing the trust of HNWIs, they have a strong foundation from which to work. It will be important for firms to clearly communicate the impact of regulatory shifts to their employees, so they in turn can steer clients through the changes. Despite the industry challenges, firms and wealth managers able to present themselves as trusted advisors will be able to further build on the improving trust levels they have with HNWIs.
HNWI ASSET ALLOCATION REFLECTS CONSERVATIVE APPROACHHNWIs exhibited a clear bias toward safety and wealth preservation, allocating nearly 30% of their financial wealth into cash and deposits. This preference for capital preservation applied to HNWIs of all ages and wealth levels, suggesting that the overall lower level of trust in the financial markets may be playing a role in HNWI asset allocation decisions. Even HNWIs who identified growth as their primary focus put 26.4% of their assets into cash, only slightly less than HNWIs primarily focused on capital preservation who put 29.7% of their assets in cash.
Despite continued economic challenges, 75.4% of HNWIs around the globe cited confidence in their ability to generate wealth over the next year, showcasing the strong optimism HNWIs have in the future. Such optimism is likely driven by the high trust levels in their wealth managers combined with the high marks HNWIs placed on the competency of their advisors and support staff. Wealth manager competency emerged as the single largest service priority among HNWIs, with 67.5% rating it as most important. Globally, 52.6% of HNWIs gave their advisors and support staff a strong performance rating in this area.
However, the financial crisis has had a significant impact on the industry’s overall image, leading to overall low levels of HNWI trust in financial markets and regulators. In the first quarter of 2013, only 45.4% of HNWIs had trust in financial markets and only 39.6% had trust and confidence in regulatory bodies and institutions. Trust in European financial markets was especially low (30.4%), likely driven by ongoing economic uncertainty.
The shifting regulatory landscape emerged as a factor in the low confidence levels HNWIs have in regulatory institutions. In addition to shouldering some blame for the crisis, regulators may be seen by HNWIs to be moving at a slow pace in terms of issue resolution despite increased regulatory velocity, and creating service interruptions due to a lack of jurisdictional regulatory alignment. In Europe and North America, where the regulatory change is

Focus on Wealth Growth vs Wealth Preservation
23!"#$ WORLD WEALTH REPORT
Global HNWIs Show Clear Focus on Wealth Preservation, though Some Emerging-Markets HNWIs Seek GrowthDespite 75.4% of HNWIs citing confidence in their ability to generate wealth over the next year, a preference for a generally conservative approach is widely held. A higher percentage of HNWIs indicate a focus on wealth preservation (32.7%) compared to wealth growth (26.3%) (see Figure 16). This tendency toward wealth preservation is stronger among older HNWIs and those in upper wealth segments, as 44.8% of HNWIs who hold US$20 million and above in investable assets and 34.8% of those who fall into the 60-plus age band are focused on wealth preservation. Regional differences also exist with HNWIs in the emerging markets of Middle East and Africa relatively more focused on wealth growth. The majority of Japanese HNWIs did not show a strong preference for wealth growth or preservation, perhaps reflecting an uncertain mindset towards their wealth strategies and leading to large cash and deposit holdings of 49.4%.
Asset allocation preferences also reflected the focus on wealth preservation. Even in the face of robust overall growth in equity markets over the last three years – the MSCI World Index grew by 6.9% annually
from 2010 to 2012 – the majority of HNWIs globally continued to favor capital preservation instruments, such as cash and deposits (see Figure 12 on Page 16).
Traditionally, and driven by industry practice, HNWIs have largely measured the success of their portfolios on a relative basis using yardsticks like market indices or benchmark returns. Our survey showed, however, a movement away from this conventional measure. HNWIs are now more inclined to judge a portfolio’s success on an absolute basis, such as its ability to help them achieve personal financial and life goals like retiring comfortably, sending a family member to university, or buying a vacation home. Thirty-five percent of HNWIs now prefer to judge their portfolio using such absolute measures, while only 22.9% prefer to use relative benchmark returns to evaluate success.
Measuring wealth performance on an absolute basis was of particular importance among HNWIs in higher wealth segments. Of HNWIs with US$20 million and above, 44.3% prefer an absolute measure. Interestingly, on a regional basis, HNWIs in mature markets were considerably less likely to use an absolute measure compared to their counterparts in emerging markets.

In today’s context, what is wealth management? § “Wealth Management addresses every aspect of a client’s financial life in a
consultaeve and a highly individualisec way.
§ It uses a complete range of products, services and strategies.

§ Off the shelf – it won’t do. § What wealth management requires is conneceng with clients on a personal
level that is way beyond the retail financial services industry norm”

The next generation wealth manager has a lot more on his or her plate. That means:
§ moving away from a product-centric to customer-centric focus
§ to be the primary financial relationship based on a bond of trust, and the ability to deliver client-focused solutions and options.
§ delivering a quality customer experience at every touch point
