Low-Expense Portfolio Design For RIAs

Reduce the cost of advising on a core portfolio while capitalizing on consumer demand for personal advice and transparency as well as low expenses.

At this session, Dr. Craig Israelsen discusses the essential attributes of a low-cost portfolio diversified broadly to serve as core holdings for all your clients and how to customize it to each client. The "core and customize” approach is a systematic way of scaling a professional practice.

Investment advice is a commodity and this approach enables a real financial professional to add value to each client by personalizing portfolios and giving ongoing tax and financial planning advice.         

Dr. Israelsen, who has taught at the graduate- and undergraduate-level about family financial management for over two decades, shares why low expenses and broadly diversifying is an excellent way to grow a professional practice.
