From Janus Henderson to independent RIAs, the mid-2026 investing consensus is quietly contrarian: diversify, rebalance, ignore the hype.

Nearly half of unadvised workers and 20% of retirees expect to hire an advisor, according to new research. Plus, many workers erroneously think they are saving.

Many retirement savers will have no trouble choosing between an IRA or a trust. But experts say there are some important factors that add complication to the decision.

In his new role at Wells Fargo, Andre Mansour is harnessing his Google experience to bring efficient, meaningful systems that assist both advisors and clients.

Median sale prices for RIAs have long been ticking upward. But some valuation experts argue that impending retirements could lead to an oversupply of firms on the market — and lower price tags.

Financial advisors and their clients must prepare for the possibilities of a stock downturn, unexpected early retirement, long-term care and inflation, experts say.

Raising firm fees — whether under a flat-fee or AUM model — is essential to maintaining a profitable RIA. Wealth advisors shared how they were able to increase prices and revenue with little client turnover.

Innocent client missteps can retroactively zero out balances in the alternatives-rich, held-away retirement accounts, with the advisor none the wiser.

Portfolio managers from Fidelity, Columbia Threadneedle and JPMorgan said the case for dividend investing remains strong, even if it receives less emphasis than other strategies these days.

Clients have many reasons for not divulging details on the assets they have at, including embarrassment. Advisors say it's still important to understand their total financial picture and, above all, not be judgmental.
