One AdvisorTarget client data study done by a top broker-dealer showed advisor purchase intent signals were highly predictive. If an advisor read about a specific asset class (e.g. small cap equities or emerging market bonds), 96% of the time they transacted in that asset class in the same quarter.
“We are very excited to partner with AdvisorTarget and offer our clients the most accurate and trusted information on advisors along with predictive, actionable intelligence,” stated Craig Katz, Executive Vice President of Discovery Data. “No other solution in the marketplace can provide this level of insight and ability to target in such a timely and effective way.”
“This unique partnership gives clients complete confidence in their data-driven decisions by offering both an identity-lock on advisors and a predictive view of purchase behavior. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Discovery Data to bring this unprecedented opportunity to clients,” said Duncan MacDonald-Korth, CEO of AdvisorTarget.
