Bridging the Trust Divide: The Financial Advisor-Client Relationship

When it comes to selecting a financial advisor, trust is key. Although that
might sound elementary, the results of a recent survey conducted by
Knowledge@Wharton and State Street Global Advisors (SSgA) show that
many advisors are failing to cultivate trust through careful communication
of the value of their services, sensitivity to client needs, and competence
in discussing rates and other potentially awkward topics. In fact, according
to the survey, there is a serious gap between how well clients think their
advisors are doing and the advisors' much higher opinion of their own
performance.

In this special report, Knowledge@Wharton and SSgA look at the qualities
that underlie strong advisor-client relationships. Industry experts and
Wharton faculty weigh in on how trust is eroded, how expertise, ethics
and empathy factor in, and what can be done to tackle sticky issues like
transparency in fees. The report also includes a discussion of the
SSgA-Knowledge@Wharton survey results and a follow-up focus group
on investors' attitudes about advisors.
