Insights

Envestnet's strategic focus on the high-net-worth (HNW) market segment is a smart move given the concentration of wealth in this demographic. The company's expansion of its Private Wealth Consulting business by 50% and the enhancement of its product offerings demonstrate a commitment to capturing market share in this lucrative segment.

The introduction of advanced HNW solutions, including tax overlay, direct indexing and alternatives, positions Envestnet to meet the sophisticated needs of wealthy clients. This could lead to increased revenue per client and potentially higher profit margins. The launch of the Proposal Desk is a value-added service that could improve advisor efficiency and client acquisition rates.

However, success will depend on Envestnet's ability to execute effectively and differentiate its offerings in a competitive market. The company will need to demonstrate clear ROI for advisors to justify any increased costs associated with these enhanced services. Overall, this strategic initiative has the potential to drive long-term growth and strengthen Envestnet's market position in wealth management technology.

Envestnet's research highlighting that 57% of advisors have less than 20% of their clients with a net worth over $5 million reveals a significant growth opportunity in the HNW space. By providing advisors with tools to better serve this segment, Envestnet is positioning itself as an enabler of practice growth.

The expansion of UMA-eligible direct index solutions and bespoke consulting for $1M+ accounts addresses the increasing demand for personalization among HNW clients. This move aligns with industry trends towards more tailored investment strategies and holistic wealth management.

The company's platform reach of over 110,000 advisors provides a substantial distribution channel for these new offerings. If Envestnet can successfully drive adoption of its HNW-focused tools, it could see a meaningful increase in assets under management and associated fees. However, the success of this initiative will depend on the quality of execution and the ability to demonstrate tangible benefits to both advisors and their HNW clients.

BERWYN, Pa., Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Attracting and retaining high-net-worth (HNW) investors as lifelong clients is a critical focus for many financial advisors, yet the path to successfully engaging this lucrative client segment remains complex. Envestnet's latest research sheds light on the strategies and solutions that can help advisors better serve HNW clients and grow their practices. According to Envestnet's 2024 Advisor Perspectives Survey1, nearly one-third of advisors are set to enhance their focus on services tailored for HNW or ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) clients. This number rises to 40% among firms managing over $500 million in assets.

"More than two-thirds of investable assets are now tied to HNW and UHNW investors.2 Understanding the needs and expectations of HNW clients is crucial for advisors looking to grow their business and engage with this sophisticated client segment," said Michael Featherman, CFA, Head of Advisor Sales and Wealth Consulting at Envestnet. "At Envestnet, we're thrilled to advance our product and technology offering, and expand our distribution efforts to better enable advisors looking to succeed in this high-growth part of their business."

To support the evolving needs of advisors, Envestnet has expanded its national distribution efforts within its Private Wealth Consulting business by 50%. The geographically dispersed Envestnet Advisor Sales and Wealth Consulting team is focused on supporting HNW advisor business growth by providing the technology tools and wealth solutions they need to attract and retain HNW investors. Through holistic advice and personalized services on Envestnet's flexible and integrated wealth management platform – advisors can access advanced HNW solutions including tax overlay; UMA-eligible direct index solutions; alternatives, options and structured investments.

Further, with more advisors considering ways to incorporate greater customization within their HNW portfolios, Envestnet is enhancing its product and technology offering with solutions like direct indexing and tax overlay capabilities, to help advisors better personalize their portfolio management services. To deliver these custom solutions, the expanded distribution team can offer white glove, private wealth consulting for accounts over $1M, designed to meet an individual investor's specific needs.

In addition, and to address advisor need for proposal generation support, Envestnet has launched a Proposal Desk supported by its Wealth Consulting Team to serve as a resource that removes training barriers and allows advisors to more seamlessly and successfully generate a higher volume of outsourced managed account proposals for their HNW clients.

"Every advisor aims to work with more high-net-worth clients due to the higher revenue and valuable referrals they bring," said Phil Buchanan, Executive Chairman of the Board at Cannon Financial Institute. "However, many advisors currently have a small proportion of HNW clients. Envestnet's research shows that 57% of advisors have less than 20% of their clients with a net worth over $5 million. What Envestnet is offering through their private wealth consulting is a tremendous value for the advisors of these top clients."

"Our enhanced product and distribution efforts to help advisors expand their HNW client base are poised to significantly benefit the industry, while also providing greater value to investors," concluded Featherman.

In June, Envestnet announced it was strengthening partnerships with several large asset managers to give advisors advanced tools for custom-tailored investment strategies. The program features UMA-eligible direct index solutions, Strategist UMA models for HNW and UHNW clients, and bespoke consulting for accounts over $1M. These innovations allow advisors to create highly personalized strategies, including new investment options, addressing specific client goals and circumstances, and are accessible at scale to over 110,000 advisors on the Envestnet platform.
