Opis

Mainstay reference guide for wealth management, newly updated for today's investment landscape For over a decade, The New Wealth Management: The Financial Advisor's Guide to Managing and Investing Client Assets has provided financial planners with detailed, step-by-step guidance on developing an optimal asset allocation policy for their clients. And, it did so without resorting to simplistic model portfolios, such as lifecycle models or black box solutions. Today, while The New Wealth Management still provides a thorough background on investment theories, and includes many ready to use client presentations and questionnaires, the guide is newly updated to meet twenty-first century investment challenges. The book

• Includes expert updates from Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Institute, in addition to the core text of 1997's first edition ? endorsed by investment luminaries Charles Schwab and John Bogle
• Presents an approach that places achieving client objectives ahead of investment vehicles
• Applicable for self-study or classroom use

Now, as in 1997, The New Wealth Management effectively blends investment theory and real world applications. And in today's new investment landscaped, this update to the classic reference is more important than ever.

PRAISE FOR The new wealth management

"The business of wealth management is about more than exercising fiduciary responsibility over client funds. The New Wealth Management explains the importance of working to achieve client objectives beyond simply managing their money. This book is an advisor′s road map to building and maintaining client wealth and well–being."
Meir Statman, Glenn Klimek Professor of Finance, Santa Clara University, author of What Investors Really Want

"The wealth management industry is a work–in–progress. It is thus fitting that, once in a while, insightful authors take the time to collate the state of the current wisdom and create a book such as The New Wealth Management. It should be required reading for anyone practicing the trade, and many clients might also benefit. It is comprehensive, clear, and well written. It is hard to think of one good reason not to have this book by one′s side, as the handbook to which one turns when faced with a challenge."
Jean Brunel, Managing Principal, Brunel Associates

"The New Wealth Management is a masterpiece. Even the most experienced financial advisor has much to gain from this comprehensive, practitioner–focused manual. The well–crafted essays covering the most important issues for today′s wealth managers integrate the essential parts of the wealth management process. I highly recommend this outstanding book."
Michael Pompian, CFA, CFP, Director, Private Wealth Practice, Hammond Associates, author, Behavioral Finance and Wealth Management

"Since Wealth Management was first published in 1997, it has been the authoritative guide for the wealth management profession. The New Wealth Management is a more than worthy successor comprehensive, accessible, and written specifically for practitioners. No one who takes their practice and their profession seriously should be without it. It is the definitive ′how to′ reference book for wealth managers."
Scott Welch, CIMA, Senior Managing Director, Investment Research & Strategy, Fortigent, LLC

"Advisors working with investors of all types must not only have expertise, they must view the services they deliver through the eyes of the client. They must open broader conversations with investors about risk, investment acumen, and psychological biases. Through practical and situational application, this book guides advisors significantly in that direction. It is an excellent portfolio management resource which belongs in every advisor′s library."
Lisa Gray, Managing Member, Graymatter Strategies, LLC, author of The New Family Office and Generational Wealth Management
