On today’s Intelligent Money Minute, we interview Aaron Klein on the three waves of investing advice.  Riskalyze is an investment risk software that powers the world’s first risk alignment platform that is built on top of a Nobel-prize-winning academic framework. During this episode, Aaron mentions the three waves of investing advice over the past several decades. There is some merit in having a financial plan that is goals-based but is it enough to let investors stick to it without understanding their fears? 

At Intelligent Investing, we use Intelligrations™ or Intelligent Integrations to make sure that our clients’ goals-based financial plan is integrated with their portfolio and to integrate their portfolio with our clients’ risk tolerance. As Aaron mentioned, we want to transform fearful investors who make bad decisions into fearless investors who make great decisions, and over time improve their financial picture.

On today’s Intelligent Money Minute, we interview Aaron Klein on how Riskalyze empowers investors.  Riskalyze is an investment risk software that powers the world’s first risk alignment platform that is built on top of a Nobel-prize-winning academic framework. During this episode, Aaron resonates with investors stunted by analysis-paralysis and the fears of unknown risk. 

There will always be fear out there in the world. The human instinct is to run when we are faced with our fears. At intelligent Investing, we use a 6-month time frame and probabilities to demonstrate to our clients what they can likely expect their portfolio to achieve in the next 6 months. The range includes negative and positive returns, but it is designed to build trust and demonstrate that clients can give themselves permission to stick to the portfolio when things become scary.

As Aaron mentioned, we want to transform fearful investors who make bad decisions into fearless investors who make great decisions, and over time improve their financial picture. To learn more about our philosophy, be sure to subscribe to our podcasts so you can stay informed.

On today’s Intelligent Money Minute, we welcome Aaron Klein the CEO of Riskalyze. During this episode, Aaron explains the importance of knowing your risk, and the multiple types of risks investors may need to consider. 

At Intelligent Investing, we believe in looking at a clients’ risk in four ways:

1. Willingness to take on risk (your sleep at night factor as we call it)
2. Ability to take on risk—how much risk are you able to take based on your balance sheet and income statement.
3. Need for risk (which comes from the financial plan and your goals and time horizon)
4. Your portfolio’s risk—We strive to align these risks for our clients in an easy-to-understand risk number that we monitor over time. 

As Aaron mentioned, we want to transform fearful investors who make bad decisions into fearless investors who make great decisions, and over time improve their financial picture. To learn more about our philosophy, be sure to subscribe to our podcasts so you can stay informed.

On today’s Intelligent Money Minute, we welcome Aaron Klein the CEO of Riskalyze. During this episode, Aaron explains how his company Riskalyze came to be, and what’s Riskalyze mission for investors and financial advisors. Riskalyze’s mission is to empower the world to invest fearlessly. It’s a very investor-focused mission, but the truth is everything Riskalyze does is through the lens of helping the financial help the end investor. Our psychology often sabotages us when investing. Riskalyze seeks to transform those sabotaged investors into fearless investors with the help of a qualified financial advisor. 

Some innate investment behaviors are unavoidable. However, we want to help our clients harness their harmful emotional behaviors, including that mother of all behavioral finance biases- confirmation bias. At Intelligent Investing, if we can help empower you to invest fearlessly, we’d be honored to have a confidential call or coffee with you.

On today’s Intelligent Money Minute, we welcome Aaron Klein the CEO of Riskalyze. Riskalyze is an investment risk software that powers the world’s first risk alignment platform that is built on top of a Nobel-prize-winning academic framework. During this episode, Aaron goes back to the beginnings of Riskalyze, and how he got inspired to create his risk analysis software. 

At Intelligent Investing, our firm was built on the belief that improving investor behavior is crucial to long-term success. Unfortunately, we live in a society that has made almost a secular religion out of “investment outperformance,” and the average investor tends to misbehave and doesn’t just merely underperform the markets– they often underperform their own investments! The reason the average investor blows upwards of 60% of the return of the average fund over any given 20-year period is that he behaved inappropriately.

As Aaron mentioned, we want to transform fearful investors who make bad decisions into fearless investors who make great decisions, and over time improve their financial picture. To learn more about our philosophy, be sure to subscribe to our podcasts so you can stay informed.
