Product Questions

What is Behavioral Finance?
Behavioral Finance is, at its core, the application of psychology to understand human behavior in finance or investing. When rational financial models are difficult for clients to relate to, behavioral finance has emerged in prominence as a coherent way to explain the market and client behavior. By using behavioral finance to understand the types of client you are working with, you will be able to better manage client expectations, work to fulfill them, and create a more rewarding client-advisor relationship.
