Happy New Year's Eve-Eve-Eve, everyone! And I've got to say, 2022 is going to be a year to remember. For me personally, it has definitely been one for the books. I started covering wealthtech for Financial Planning and hosting the Financial Planning Podcast this year. As a result, I've had the opportunity to connect with so many of you who check out this newsletter each week and tell some of your stories. So this week, as I highlight a few stories and conversations looking back at how tech impacted the industry in 2022, and how it will continue to evolve in 2023, I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for sharing stages with me. Keeping it real with me. Sharing your vision with me. Opening up to me. Here's to more of that, and a whole lot more, in 2023. It's also a good time to talk about money! Primarily, how advisory firms plan to spend it on wealthtech next year. I had the chance to catch up with Doug Fritz of F2 Strategy to discuss new research on the topic, and his team expects user experience and data to be major focus areas for wealth managers. Check out the full story and additional insight at Financial Planning. Anything else on your mind as 2022 ticks away? Drop me a line at justin.mack@arizent.com. Have a great rest of the week! And whatever you do to ring in the new year, please do it safely and responsibly. Cheers! Regards, Justin | | Justin Mack Reporter, Financial Planning |
