BERWYN, Pa., July 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Envestnet published findings from its first national study, "The Intelligent Financial Life: The Unexpected Intersection Between Technology, Clarity, and the Human Connection," led in partnership with The Center for Generational Kinetics, which uncovered surprising trends, attitudes and behaviors that Americans across generations have around integrating financial advisors with new technology to help reach their financial goals.

The study provides research-based insights on what is needed to help people achieve The Intelligent Financial Lifetm -- Envestnet's answer to investors' stress and confusion about money, and a way to connect every facet of their finances through an ecosystem of data-driven advice, solutions, intelligence, and technology.

"At Envestnet, we are focused on supporting financial advisors with the tools and knowledge needed to guide clients on the path to living an Intelligent Financial Life," said Mary Ellen Dugan, Chief Marketing Officer of Envestnet. "The findings in this study suggest that by connecting people's daily financial lives to their long-term goals, advisors can give their clients what they are looking for?a unified and connected experience for all things money, investing, and personal finance."

This report examined the key questions facing the industry through a different lens. Rather than comparing attitudes about technology-only solutions versus working with a human advisor, the study sought to understand how investors view each path, where they constructively intersect, and what that means for the industry.

"Americans across generations have a complicated financial relationship and they receive their information from many sources ? including family, financial professionals and technology," said Jason Dorsey, Generations and Behavioral Researcher and Speaker, The Center for Generational Kinetics, LLC. "All these sources matter and consumers don't want to be delivered an 'either/or' experience. They are stitching together their own experience across human and digital resources."

Study findings fell within three distinct categories, showing that U.S. investors and future investors:

"What is clear is that our industry must deliver a new digital human experience ? one that is a balanced combination of human-centric help through trusted financial professionals, with integrated technology engagement via financial apps and embedded finance," added Ms. Dugan. "We have an incredible opportunity to understand what investors of all ages really want, need, and expect will be provided to help guide them on their journey toward financial wellbeing ? allowing them to achieve their full financial potential."

Methodology

The national study included 2,158 U.S. participants ages 25-65. This included 1,038 U.S. participants representing the general population, and 1,120 U.S. participants who have an annual household income or household net worth of $100,000 or more. The sample was weighted to the 2020 U.S. Census for age, gender, geography, and ethnicity. The national study was conducted online from December 13, 2021, to January 11, 2022.
